A story in Diabetes Forecast magazine (circulation 470,000) titled "College and Diabetes: On Campus and On Course" quotes St. Olaf student and varsity football player Matt Nelson '09 (at right) about the experience of dealing with diabetes while in college.

“My friends were always getting on my tail for not testing before meals," he says, and notes that his trainer helped him figure out how to control his fluctuating blood glucose during games.
