On Sunday, April 28, Harker will host Congressman Mike Honda’s Student Advisory Council Conference, organized by Honda’s Student Advisory Council (SAC), a group of high school students that identifies and researches issues of critical importance to young people. The event will be on the upper school campus.

Health and wellness will be the topics of this year’s conference, titled “Eat, Sleep, Move,” which takes place from 1-4 p.m. at the Nichols Hall atrium. Congressman Honda will be there himself to open the conference, which will feature two guest speakers, psychologist Marilee Ruebsamen and nutritionist Suellen Haggerty.

In addition to the speakers, attendees will be able to see the results of a survey of Bay Area high school students conducted by the SAC. “We surveyed hundreds of high school students from around the Bay Area, asking them about their dietary, exercise and sleeping habits,” said SAC member Felix Wu, grade 10. “We will be revealing the results of this survey at the conference and briefly analyzing the outcomes.”

Attendees will also learn about the nutritional value of common foods in a presentation based on the book “Eat This, Not That!” by David Zinczenko.

Admission to this event is free, and attendees will receive a goodie bag.
