Issue 3 A Keeper
You guys have outdone yourselves! And during a pandemic! With the Bowled Over Bowls and the Refreshing Mocktails, burger comparisons, chilled soups, and nutritional yeast information, this issue is a keeper! Thanks for all you do!

Thanks for Doing Detailed Articles
Your online sugar article from 2007 by Jeanne Yacoubou was terrific. Thank you for such detailed information. So many poorly written articles are online. Seems like everyone thinks they are a writer, yet were never educated in journalism. Since the internet exploded it has given anyone with a computer the right to write. They just give one paragraph and ads for their blog. Will be reading more from you all.

Update on VRG Scholarship Winner
I wanted to update you about Jasmine Westerdahl, who is a 2016 Vegetarian Resource scholarship winner. Jasmine received her B.S. degree (magna cum laude) in nutrition and dietetics from Loma Linda University in June. She just passed her registration exam and is now a registered dietitian nutritionist. She is into her second quarter in the M.S. degree program at Loma Linda. If all goes well, she should receive that degree in June. So far she is getting all A's in the M.S. classes. She is already talking about wanting to go on for a doctorate. Her professors are encouraging her to continue on to her doctorate after her master's degree.
