In todays day and age,
when people want to diet they
tend to turn to fitness trackers
(wearable bands or online apps),
because technology is amazing!
Surely, fitness trackers have been
known to help people lose weight
and meet other fitness goals
mine helped me lose 50 pounds.
But are they as safe as we think
they are, or is something thats
supposed to be healthy actually
making us unhealthy?
MyFitnessPal is a commonly used fitness-tracking app
(among many), because its free
and available for various devices.
This app does just about everything you could think of: tracking
your weight loss, setting a weight
goal, setting a daily calorie goal,
setting nutritional (carbs, fat, protein) goals, calculating net calories,
and calculating possible future
weight based on daily intake. It
also calculates caloric expenditure.
However, if youre using the app
by itself, you have to input your
physical activity manually, which

As far as what can ultimately lead an adolescent to consider suicide, usually a significantly negative life change takes place
prior. This could be the death of a

Website Makeover
By SARAH GALZERANO
Staff Writer
As some of you may
already know, a new Cumberland
County College website design is
underway by Digital Wave, an information architecture and website
development company. According
to Executive Director of Communications and Marketing, Keith
Wasserman, the Digital Wave
team began to work on the website in late November. Their first
step was to conduct a complete inventory of the information on the
curr ent website and reorganize it.
The new site is expected to go live
in June.
There have been two
student focus groups to display the
new school website. Digital Wave
representatives Brian Furry (Project Manager), Bruce Cronlund
(Technical Director), and Tony
Rose (User Experience Lead) were
present at the second group on
January 28. The communications
students from EN-241 and EN242 who attended this focus group
all seemed to be pleased with what
was to come. Many said how the
new layout and design expectations are a definite improvement
to how the school website looks
currently.
One of the major changes to the design is an easily accessible, separate homepage for the
community. This way community
members wont get lost scrolling
through student material when
they try to find upcoming events
at the Frank Guarancini Center.
Everything that would be essential
for current and incoming students
would be found on the homepage.
Another major improvement to the new student
homepage are large links to several
of CCCs partner schools. Many
students are still unaware of the
partnerships we hold with Wilmington University, Montclair State
University, Rowan University,

any medals, but he stated that he
learned a lot from the competition
experience.
After this specific tournament, Olivero was very proud of
his club members that competed.
They all learned something just
by showing up. As theyre competing, they improve.
Olivero has been fencing for 57 years, and has been
teaching fencing at Cumberland
County College since it opened
in 1966. Currently, his fencing
club has seven active members- 16
total. If you would like to join the
Fencing Club, go to the Charles
Cunningham Recreational Center/
Gymnasium on campus at 2 pm
on Wednesdays, and lessons are
free for students.
