"Hockomock Area YMCA will hold a diabetes prevention class at 12:30 p.m. Mondays beginning Oct. 3, and 6 p.m. Wednesdays beginning Oct. 5 at Hockomock Area YMCA Bernon Family Branch, 45 Forge Hill Road, Franklin.
With millions of Americans at risk for prediabetes and Type 2 diabetes, the Hockomock Area YMCA and Sturdy Memorial Hospital urge residents of their communities to learn their risk and take action to prevent the disease. Currently, diabetes affects nearly 29 million people; another 86 million Americans have prediabetes, yet only about 10 percent are aware of it.

"Dean College will welcome in its largest enrollment in the past 25 years — and, possibly, its history — when it resumes classes Tuesday.
The college will likely enroll 1,150 to 1,200 students in this, its 151st year.
College spokesman Gregg Chalk said the college is excited to see so many students, the bulk of whom will be moving in on Monday.
"We do have some students who arrived early, like our football and soccer teams and student government," he said. "Probably 30 percent of the students are on campus, with the remaining 70 percent moving in on Monday."

Here, the duo completes their road trip from Los Angeles to Philadelphia for the Democratic National Convention. They reflect on the people they’ve met and stories they’ve heard along their trip.
People in recovery are everywhere. We are your brothers, your fathers, your mothers and sons, your sisters and daughters. We are your CEOs, we are your employees, your neighbors and your delegates to National Politics Conventions. While this road trip may be over, the journey is just beginning.
