IU Indy: Therapy dogs are coming to University Hall tomorrow.

That's it. That's the post.

Take a study break and stop by United Way P.A.W.S. (Pet Away Worry and Stress) on October 14 from 1:00-2:30 p.m. on the 2nd floor of University Hall for some much-needed dog cuddles.

Donations to United Way are welcome, but not required to attend. Come say hi, de-stress, and spend some time with some very good dogs. People are sitting on the floor petting two big dogs. One dog is sitting and the other is lying down with a colorful bandana. There are several individuals in the background, and the setting appears to be a social or therapy event. by @iusocialwork

🚣 Another look at this year’s Regatta.

Associate Professor and BSW Program Director Dr. Katie McCarthy joined Assistant Dean of Student Success Debbie Koliba and Paddle for Change students Norah and April for a quick picture during their day on the canal.

Love the celebration of connection, community, and a little friendly competition.🛶 by @iusocialwork
