Why we need to talk about eating disorders

Unfortunately, my struggles are not unique, especially on college campuses. According to a 2006 survey conducted by the National Eating Disorder Association (NEDA), nearly 20% of college students indicated that they have or previously had an eating disorder. Another study, conducted in 2011, found that eating disorders affected 25% of men and 32.6% of women on college campuses. These statistics alone are striking, yet it is likely that in recent years, rates of eating disorders are even higher.

In response to student strikes

As a graduate of Notre Dame, it is good to see students who are passionate about bringing injustices to the forefront, and I agree that the community should engage in dialogue when change is needed. However, student efforts aimed at GEO Group are unfortunately based on misinformation at best and intentional dishonesty at worst. I have worked for GEO for 20 years, and each day we strive to treat those entrusted to our care with compassion, dignity and respect, no exceptions. It is why we consistently meet the high standards set forth by our government partners and independent accreditation entities.
