For all those dog lovers out there, all this week and next week until Thursday the 27th, there will be therapy dogs on campus to help students destress and take a study break. The therapy dogs, and human volunteers are from the Therapy Dogs of Boulder County. They work with several organizations across Boulder to provide volunteer dog love for those in need. CU’s University Libraries are hosting these dogs. Next week they will be at the Music Library, Tile Lounge, on Tuesday April 25th from 1-3 pm, at the Business Library on Wednesday April 26th from 2-4 pm, and the Earth Sciences and Map Library on Thursday April 27th from 1-3 pm. The dogs are very calm, obedient and love to be petted. CU is hosting these dogs because it is scientifically proven that petting a dog can lower blood pressure and decrease levels of stress. This has become an annual thing for CU, so do yourself a favor and stop by any of these libraries to make a new doggie friend!

Lily is a senior at the University of Colorado at Boulder and will be graduating with a Bachelor of Arts in Film Studies along with a certificate in Business. She is originally from Scarborough, Maine, but decided to venture to Colorado for it's beauty and to get back in touch with her birth place which is Boulder. She is a Film Studies major because she is very interested in the behind the scenes of what goes into making a film. Not only that, but her favourite hobby in the world is to watch movies. She recently went abroad to Sydney, Australia to get a taste of a different culture. While being there, she learned to not take life too seriously, and to slow things down. The Australian lifestyle can really teach a person how to be chill. You can find Lily at the movies, hanging on Pearl Street having a beer with friends, or at the breathtaking lookout of Flagstaff enjoying the view.
