Students clustered around fi ve of photogra- pher Russel Daniels’ displayed photos in the UC. They showcased nude bodies and were displayed under a huge “Love Your Body” sign with fl yers that said, “95 percent of diets fail,” “A shocking 81 percent of 10-year-old girls are afraid of being fat,” and “More than 80 percent of fourth grade girls have been on a fad diet.” Students for Choice teamed with the Women’s Resource Center for an exhibition of Daniels’ photos for Love Your Body Day Wednesday, when they were displayed on the third fl oor of the UC. Thursday they were moved to the fi rst fl oor atrium. Responses to the display varied, said Ra- chel Wanderscheid, the outreach coordinator for the Women’s Resource Center and a senior majoring in philosophy. But there were more positive comments

Alisia Muhlestein/Montana Kaimin than negative, Wanderscheid said. Students examine the Love Your Body exhibit Thursday in the UC Atrium. The purpose of the exhibit was to increase awareness of body issues and “They have been overwhelmingly positive,” to encourage people to embrace themselves as they are. The display, which included statistics and nude photographs, was sponsored by the Women’s See BODY, page 11 Resource Center and photographed by UM journalism student Russel Daniels.
