The Bakersfield College Library hosted a series of events as part of their De-Stress
Week. The goal is to help students take a break from their busy schedules and finals
preparation to enjoy some down time and reduce stress.
On Wednesday, the Library invited Miracle Mutts to the Panorama Campus for a time
of playful interaction with their therapy dogs. Several students stopped by the peace
garden outside the library to spend some quality time with the furry, friendly companions.
Each dog was happy to share affection with all the participants, including giving
hugs and playing. Overall, it was a fun time of connection with the Miracle Mutts,
while disconnecting from the busyness of the week.
Other de-stress events included coffee and cookies in the stacks, DIY crafts, meditation
workshop, and more. Thank you Miracle Mutts for coming to the Panorama Campus and
providing this activity for our students and staff. Thank you to the library for scheduling
all the De-Stress Week activities to help our Renegades take a mental break before
finals and end-of-the-year projects.
