An event last Tuesday at Harbour Centre, called Brain Food- How to Eat Smart, enlightened students on the effects that eating has on your mood — or, as organizers put it, those “butterflies” in your stomach. The talk discussed how the digestive tract actually contains millions of neurons (just like the brain) which makes what you eat all the more important. Those in attendance learned how to feed their brains for steady energy, which foods improve concentration and memory, which foods “leave you tired and blue,” and five foods to avoid for brain health.

SFU educators (or would-be educators) were invited to kick back and interact at the Central City Pub last Friday afternoon at a Teaching with Technology social event. The event was a follow-up to the Teaching with Technology in Surrey series kick-off, which brings staff together to discuss new ideas and best practices for teaching with technology. Attendees participated in short, fun activities while enjoying light snacks and refreshments.

SFU partnered with the NATO Defense College to host their second joint summit last Friday, entitled “Euro-Atlantic Meets Asia Pacific: NATO, Partners and the US Rebalance.” The day-long event invited speakers from around the world to share their own perspectives on the rise of Asia-Pacific as a global economic and security region. The keynote was given by Peter Lavoy, former Acting Assistant Secretary General for Asian and Pacific Security Affairs for the US Department of Defense, and closing remarks were made by SFU professor of political science, Alexander Moens.
