  • Dear students,

    With just a few weeks left to go in the semester, it is crucial that you remember to make time for your own well-being, in addition to your school work and other responsibilities.

    This week I would like to focus on the importance of good food and regular exercise to help manage stress levels and improve your mood.

    Lina Begdache, assistant professor of health and wellness studies at the Decker School of Nursing, offers five tips below to help you build healthy and successful patterns to carry you through the rest of the semester.

    1. Your food affects your mood! So, make sure you choose each meal wisely.

    2. Foods like coffee and carbohydrates (bread, rice, pasta) activate our stress response and make us more likely to experience mental distress, so limit your intake of these foods.

    3. Meat, fruits and vegetables are full of vitamins that will help boost your mental state and make you feel good, so stock up on these!

    4. Eating breakfast jumpstarts your metabolism and gives you energy to get through the day. Your brain relies on a routine of eating at the same time every day, so make sure to start each morning with a balanced meal!

    5. Exercising at least three times a week leads to the buildup of serotonin and dopamine in your brain, both of which help reduce stress and promote a good mood! So take a walk, hit the gym, get moving!

    According to Lina, “If you have good exercise and diet practices, you feel better. And when you feel good, you’re more likely to exercise and eat right.”

    This week we officially launched our campus-wide Stress-free Bing initiative aimed at providing interesting, fun and stress-reducing activities for students as they prepare for finals.

    I hope to see you at some of the activities!

    Sincerely,
    Harvey Stenger
    President

  • Binghamton University’s Institute for Genocide and Mass Atrocity Prevention (I-GMAP) will host an atrocity intervention simulation Saturday and Sunday, April 27 and 28, at Binghamton University’s Downtown Center, 67 Washington St., Binghamton.

    The simulation is a multi-player event that allows participants to experience a highly realistic situation of an impending mass atrocity, and how different state and non-state actors must decide how to respond. Players are divided into teams, each representing a real-world actor. Over the course of six rounds, each team receives new and different forms of information and must decide how to assess the risk of atrocity violence, how to adapt its response, and whether and how to share new information with other teams. The simulation unfolds in real time.

    Each team will be assigned an expert in international conflict response who will assist its decision making and offer advice and guidance if needed. The simulation concludes on Sunday evening with an informal discussion over dinner.

    If you are interested in participating as a player in the atrocity intervention simulation, the event is free but space is limited and advanced registration is required before Friday, April 12.
