FURst Tuesday Back by Popular Demand
FURst Tuesdays at the Campus Sexual and Relationship Violence Center.
The Campus Sexual and Relationship Violence Center is pleased to announce the return of FURst Tuesdays, one of our most popular events. On the first Tuesday of each month of the semester, the center will host the NWA Chapter of Love on a Leash as the therapy dogs are ready to engage with the campus community. Participation with therapy dogs typically lends to fostering positive feelings.
The entire campus community is welcomed to come meet the therapy dogs, have some TLC time with them and relax for a bit. Certified therapy dogs, their owners and SRVC staff look forward to seeing you today, Sept. 5, and each first Tuesday of the semester from 6-7 p.m. at the Campus Sexual and Relationship Violence Center, located at the Garland Garage retail and office space (next to Subway). This is a drop-in event, held outside of the SRVC (weather permitting; otherwise, will be held inside the center). Come unwind and rejuvenate with us each month.
