MJC presents screening of “Fed Up”

(Modesto, CA) – The Modesto Junior College Civic Engagement Project (CEP) invites the community to a screening of the documentary film “Fed Up” on Thursday, April 2, at 7 p.m. in Forum 110 on East Campus, 435 College Avenue.  The free event is part of the CEP Spring Film and Lecture Series.  Campus parking is available for $2 in student parking lots.

Fed Up investigates the causes of obesity in the United States and argues that our attention should be focused primarily on sugar in processed foods, despite efforts of the sugar industry to direct our attention in other directions.

A discussion with MJC nutrition instructor Sally Gerling will follow the showing of the film.
