Horses offer unique form of stress relief on campus
Just before Fall finals, students were able to relieve stress and anxiety by interacting with horses on Sanford Lawn at the Horsin’ Around event. Students were able to pet, feed, and even braid the horses' hair while spending some time outdoors. Special thanks to GSW's Comptroller Colette Long for bringing her horses Spirit and Secret to campus for this event!
