Students at Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., are being treated like toddlers as they face election day stress, per a letter obtained by The Free Press.
The elite college is offering stressed out students access to a so-called “Self-Care Suit,” the outlet noted, where the young adults could occupy their time with hot cocoa, Lego building activities, mindfulness exercises, milk and cookies, coloring, and meditation. The offer was sent to students in the McCourt School of Public Policy.
“In recognition of these stressful times, all McCourt community members are welcome to gather … in the 3rd floor Commons to take a much needed break, joining us for mindfulness activities and snacks throughout the day,” the letter from the school’s director of student engagement Jaclyn Clevenger said.
Several other colleges have offered students similar amenities for them to deal with election stress. Attendees of the University of Puget Sound in Tacoma, Washington, are being offered cupcakes in addition to a “walkable labyrinth” featuring “calming lighting and music,” per the New York Post.
Those students can also participate in a “Pause for Paws” event featuring animal cuddling and hot chocolate. If that’s not enough, then later this week, students can enter a “post election processing space.” They’ll be able to create art and eat baked potatoes there.

Missouri State University has put together “self-care no phone zone space” with calm jars, coloring pages, and sensory fidgets to help students deal with election emotions, The Free Press reported.
Virginia Tech students are being encouraged to “find [their] flow” on Election Day with methods such as collaborative art projects, per the college’s Cook Counseling Center Facebook page. Other proposed stress reducers include free fidget toys, therapy dogs, guided stretching sessions, and science “hacks” for stress responses like fight or flight.
Harvard University is offering for students to spend time with “Sunshine” the puppet on Tuesday, courtesy of The Divinity School, according to a screenshot shared on X.
Northwestern offered students “puzzles, crafts, games, snacks, and a variety of brain break activities set up to help you reset, ground yourself, and enjoy connection” as attendees are encouraged to “recognize and prioritize [their] well-being.”
