I was Bulimic by age 10, Anorexic at 13, went into cardiac arrest at 16, entered rehab at 18, relapsed at 19 and I lost my first friend to her eating disorder this past summer at 20.

Flagler College owns and uses the technology necessary, like WebCT, to offer online courses. But Paula Miller, dean of academic affairs, does not see the creation of online classes at Flagler College happening anytime soon.
