Peer Health Exchange is accepting applications!
by Grace Evans, third-year in the College
Are you interested in teaching health classes to Chicago Public School students? The UChicago-based Peer Health Exchange is inviting students to apply to be a part of this national organization.
PHE is a nonprofit organization that trains college students to teach health classes to ninth-graders in public schools. PHE is a national organization, operating in four universities in Chicago and five cities throughout the U.S. This means we have access to significant monetary and human resources, and yet we function like a community organization. PHE at UChicago will teach in five schools this year, all on the South Side, and three within walking distance of the University.
PHE volunteers teach health workshops in ten subjects to meet this need, engaging students in discussions and roleplays to give them the knowledge and skills they need to make healthy decisions.
All of these schools are high-need, measured by the proportion of students receiving free or reduced lunch, and by the fact that these schools would not offer comprehensive health education if PHE were not there.

please don’t reject this prayer…
We write from Italy. We hope in Your comprehension, for lack of our names, our lies and the liberty we are taking: we fear religious fanaticism.
We have discovered an unacceptable dictionary: The Hebraic tongue restored 1815 Fabre Antoine D’Olivet (Google)
We know this is not your work, but if you are Christians, we pray you in the name of Jesus:
tell our brothers God don’t drove out the man; He don’t blotted out the men with the floodwaters.
If you believe He loves his creatures and He gives his Son to save mankind, you ought to read our discovery in www.genesirestituita.com (Italy)
We need your hebrew language teachers in university in US. O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave.
Imagin if your friends, in the year 1492, tell you that the earth turn around the sun.
Do you believe it? No. Because it is impossible, absurd, unnatural, imbelievable, unacceptable. It is a blasphemy. But if you look to the pole star, to the seasons, to the whole starry sky, you can see the truth.
We have a unacceptable discovery. We hope in your country, O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave. Yes, special courage, special hearts like in Matthhew 10.16.
We said to you, look at our work, simply and exclusively with scientific eye, only this we ask! Please help us.
We are a team, teachers and students, and we are studying four years on The Hebraic tongue restored (1815) Fabre d'Olivet Antoine 1767-1825. We affirm: hebraic teachers don’t know this opera! (you can verify) and: when Old Testament was traslated in ancient greek, complete and original meaning of hebraic tongue was lost, seriously decay.
Simply we used this etymological dictionary and grammar, exclusively in honest and scientific way.
Adam: Gen. 1.27 So God created humankind in his image, in the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.
Our name, Mankind; from the hieroglyphs origin across the greek and latin, a portion of meaning of this name remain in english and italian in the word idem.
Eve: faculty of volition.
Serpent: instinct.
Cain don’t killed Abel.
The flood of waters: the constituent elements of creation becomes act, across the ark.
The Ark: determinate provenance. And this, we think, is the big bang.
The rainbow: In your procreation it shall be seen my conception; or, Your procreation shows the way I made the creation. Gen. 9.14.
Now try to read the third chapter of Genesis in your Bible, and after the same chapter in our translation.
We don’t ask you to believe us, but we ask a scientific examination; for we used the etymological dictionary in the same way we use french, spanish or chinese dictionary: the subject leads the choice of acceptation.
Owing to text, imposing and complex, we don’t know english language enough to give you a satisfactory traslation.
We pubblished our work in: www.genesirestituita.com
In our site, if you want see hebrew alphabet, your computer needs hebrew fonts.
Anyway we need a scientific examination by a friend, who tell us: brothers, return down with feet in earth.
I pray you in the name of Jesus: help us, give this letter at university in US.
