University of Michigan department to host ‘art therapy’ and ‘post-election processing’ event
A University of Michigan academic department plans to host an “art therapy” and “post-election processing” event after the general election.
The University of Michigan School of Social Work is hosting the event “Art Therapy and Post-Election Processing,” which is planned for Thursday following Tuesday’s Election Day.
”Join us for an empowering art therapy workshop designed to help you explore and process the emotions stirred up by the election season,” an event page states. “In a safe and supportive environment, you’ll connect with others while expressing your thoughts and feelings through creative, guided art activities. Whether you’re experiencing stress, hope, frustration, or uncertainty, this workshop will give you the tools to channel your emotions and gain clarity. No artistic experience is needed—just come as you are, and let the process of creating provide some peace and perspective.
The University of Michigan isn’t the only school offering a similar event to students and staff after the election.
At the University of Oregon, the school’s health department is hosting ”election week therapy” on Tuesday.
According to three event pages, the university’s heath services department will bring therapy goats, dogs, and even “Quacktavious the Therapy Duck.”
After former President Donald Trump won the 2016 election, Virginia Tech University offered counseling to students.

Highly-paid guest appearance by Hunter Biden!
I thought our educational institutions were supposed to teach our children skills to live in the real world. Instead it seems they focus on teaching them how to cry and sulk when they don’t get their way. How pathetic!
Wow! So much to brag about in the American university system!!!
I hear that this Michigan university is a “top” place!!! that attracts tens of thousands, and tuition payments!!!! year in year out!!
Here’s a suggestion: Play volleyball. Go fly off to California and Nevada and Utah and play volleyball lololol lolol and have the state taxpayers finance it all.
Lololol
‘Murica.universities: play play travel play travel then some post-election processing art therapy!! And who pays for that? No time to study or go to class, gotta fly off to Arizona to play play play some more lolololol 👍

So much to be proud of.
Money so well spent.
Impressive.
And it only takes you weeks to tabulate your votes.
Very impressive indeed
This is not new.
When I was a law student at the U. of Michigan…early seventies so quite some time ago…my mother was an adjunct lecturer at the social work school one semester. Now, mom was a medical social worker so she had to know something and she was a liberal, albeit that meant people like Hubert Humphrey who would have no place in today’s Democratic Party.
She had taken the course as a favor to someone and wasn’t enthusiastic about it and declined an invitation to do it again. Part of it was that it was quite a drive–nearly an hour each way from our Detroit suburb. But even then, although “woke” and “political correctness” were not contemporary political terms, she said she was bothered by the political attitude of some of the department.
“Quacktavious the Therapy Duck.”
Guess what color duck he is.
