Free psychological counselor. He's cool and all, but I'd rather have a therapy dog any day.

I have heard that first year law students overburden the counseling services. Then they do not see most people after that.

I really wish we had puppies/dogs on campus like Yale and a few other schools do! We don't even get a measly free gym membership for the campus gym to help us work out some of that stress.

I would go insane without working out 3-4 times a week. It's free at my school as long as you live in their facilities (as I assume it is for most schools.)
