During the fall and spring semesters therapy dogs visit the Daniel M. Soref Learning Commons. This is an excellent opportunity for students and campus staff to de-stress and snuggle with their furry friends. Each visit is about one hour. Our volunteers come from The Alliance of Therapy Dogs and Pet Partners. Both of these organizations have information about requesting therapy dog visits and also certifying your pet as a therapy dog.
