Paula DiVencenzo, tax manager for Tax and Treasury Services at Kent State, started volunteering with the American Diabetes Association (ADA) when she was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at age 12.
On the blog, she shares
鈥淎lert Day is a one-day 鈥榳ake-up call鈥� asking the American public to take the Diabetes Risk Test to find out if they are at risk for developing type 2 diabetes,鈥� DiVencenzo says. 鈥淓arly diagnosis is critical to successful treatment and delaying or preventing some of its complications such as heart disease, blindness, kidney disease, stroke, amputation and death.鈥�

Also on the blog, Erik Zemljic, lecturer with Kent State鈥檚 Department of Economics, writes about maintaining a healthy credit report and how you can achieve that.
鈥淔inding out that you need to pay thousands of dollars more in interest on a new car or home due to a low credit score can be worse for your smile than finding out you need a root canal,鈥� he says.
