Pet Therapy at Bannatyne Interaction with animals has been shown to improve satisfaction, energy levels, self-esteem, and mood, as well as decrease stress and symptoms of depression. With exam period and end of semester upon us, many people are feeling stressed and overwhelmed. Please join us in the Buhler Atrium on April 19 from 11:00 - 12:30pm to unwind and enjoy the presence (and cuddles) of friendly and loving animals.
