The first weeks of the semester are stressful for everybody – whether you are a bright eyed, overwhelmed freshman or a super, super senior. During Welcome Weekend, or the weekend before the start of classes at IUP, a few furry friends came to help with the heightened nerves that were scattered throughout campus. From 1-2PM in the Stapleton Library, four trained therapy dogs basked in the attention of the students who immediately fell in love with them. Here are a few photos of the furry, friendly faces!
Dixie, a labradoodle, had a great personality!
Vivian, a collie, was cool as a cucumber.
