Beauty Undressed

Wednesday, March 7^th, 7:00—8:00 p.m.
K-State Student Union, Forum Hall

Beauty. What is it? Who has it? Who decides?

With “Beauty Undressed”, teens and adults, women and men, students and staff come together around one of the centralizing issues of our culture today.  Nearly 100% of the population (that is, us!) struggles with unhealthy eating habits, body shame, and insecurity whenever we look in a mirror. This is why “Beauty Undressed” is a program for all of us.  What makes “Beauty Undressed” different from other eating and body image awareness programs? This is not your ordinary eating disorders event. In fact, it is not really about eating disorders at all, but about how we as individuals and as a culture view and express beauty in the course of our everyday lives.
