You read the headline right. The University of Michigan Law School offered a post-election event for traumatized students which included having fun with Play-Doh.
The Daily Caller reported:
Univ. Of Michigan Law School Tries — And Fails — To Scrub Trump Trauma Play-Doh Event From Website
Staffers at the University of Michigan Law School scheduled a post-presidential election event entitled “Post-election Self-care with Food and Play.”
The event, featuring Play-Doh, bubbles and Legos, has now apparently been canceled — possibly in response to heaps of ridicule.
The “Post-election Self-care with Food and Play” event was scheduled to take place in Room 138 of Hutchins Hall on Michigan’s stunningly beautiful Law Quadrangle.
“Join us for delicious and comforting food with opportunity to experience some stress-busting, self-care activities such as coloring sheets, play dough [sic], positive card-making, Legos, and bubbles with your fellow law students,” the description of the event announces.

Does the U-Mich philosophy department teach Pla-Doh’s Commentaries?
Friendly – I’m not sure of the philosophy department, but the Communications chairs said it was ok to hate Republicans.

I agree with Instapundit that it creates a message that conservatives are not welcome.

I’ve saved these link to quickly access when the next Michigan person calls to ask for money. I need to add the link for the new Diversity VP and the $85 million they are going to spend on that issue.
To Professor Jacobson – I received several emails today concerning the new president at Cornell – I am so sorry that Michigan sent one of their provosts to you. Good luck, but I don’t think that Ithaca will get much worse. Maybe Ann Arbor will improve??? Nah… but I told the Cornell person yesterday that I was not donating to CU and that they didn’t need to “update” my contact info. The shock in her voice was sweet!
Virtually the entire university / college system in this country resembles a Monty Python sketch.
I firmly believe that if the colleges closed all of the grievance studies departments and tossed the instructors for those courses out the door, a huge percentage of this nonsense would evaporate. Some of the leftist influence would remain behind in the arts and music departments, certainly. But, this influence would not have the overwhelming power it has now.
Play-Doh?
If they have the Play-Doh Fun Factory, count me in!
That was the thing which extrudes I-beams and stuff. It had dies you could slide in to make different cross-sectional shapes. Ultra-cool.
These are future judges, people. Frightening.
