Georgetown University Offers Election Day 'Self-Care Suites'

Students at Georgetown's McCourt School can de-stress with activities and snacks amid election tensions.

Georgetown University's McCourt School of Public Policy is providing 'self-care suites' for students on Election Day.
These suites offer activities such as Lego building, coloring, and mindfulness exercises to help students manage stress.
The initiative includes a schedule with various activities throughout the day, including tea, cocoa, and healthy snacks.
Similar efforts are seen at other universities, like the University of Puget Sound, offering stress-relief activities during election week.
Critics argue these measures coddle students and question their impact on preparing future policymakers for real-world challenges.
