Brock University is launching a study into the so called 'Freshman Fifteen'.
The study will try to determine why first year university students end up packing on the pounds .
Researchers will study first year students nutrition, exercise and sleep habits as well as stress levels, body image and mental health.
Students interested in participating can enroll when they show up on campus next week.
Researchers will follow a single group through their four years of undergrad work and two years of post university life.
