HEALTH Be careful how much you carry Relaxation center can help ease pain By Samantha Masterson Staff Reporter
For some students, putting all their books for the day into their backpack seems like a good idea. It can cut down the time a student needs to be outside, walking between home and class. However, students who overload their backpacks may be causing them selves more pain than it is worth. Kathleen Phillips, an internship co ordinator in the department of health studies, did research several years ago on the effects of backpacks on sec ond-, third- and fourth-grade stu dents. "We wanted to find out if there was a safety concern, or any injuries caused by their backpacks," Phillips said. "However, we were not able to prove if backpacks were a direct cause to injuries." Phillips referenced The American Occupational Therapy Association for studies done on the effects of children wearing backpacks. According to The American Occu pational Therapy Association: "With more than 79 million students in the U.S. carrying school backpacks, it is MEGAN MATHY I THE DAILY EASTERN NEWS imperative they are properly educated Brendan Nelson, a junior communication studies major, hunches in his chair while doing homework in Booth Library Monday.
