Wellness Week 2020

Even virtually, we want you to put your wellness at the front of your mind! In addition to these activities, take a look at the Health & Wellness Resources on the My Georgia Law Portal.

Please join us for the next Pet Therapy Zoom! The stars of the show will be all of our pets (aspiring therapy dogs, cats, plants, other - all are welcome!), but humans without pets should join as well! We are all going to miss those adorable pups in the Law Library Foyer this exam period, but we hope Zooming with our pets can be the next best thing. Feel free to pop in just for a minute, or stay for the entire half hour - up to you!
