A Canvas for Community

“My son and I used them together and I use them on my lunch breaks to de-stress”.

"This is a beautifully researched, designed, and executed student initiative, and would be well worth the cost of continued maintenance.”

“The swings make me incredibly happy when I am using them and getting to watch other(s) have fun using them. I have had no negative experience with the swings.”

“Because of the swings, I have something to look forward to as a reward after doing work all day. It’s also a great spot to call someone and talk to them from back home. It’s also been a great thing to do to spend time with people. It’s also something I use when I have like 10 mins before class, I swing for a bit. I love the swings.”

“I love the swings and they bring liveliness to the campus. It makes me happy when I use the swings or see others swinging!”

“The swings and the smiling people using the swings bring good vibes to the campus. Thus the swings have positive effects that go beyond just the people actively using them.”

“I felt like my inner child was happy.”

“It has let me and my friends hang out more, me and my mom sat on the swings together and talked when she visited, even if I’m not the one on the swing seeing people using them makes me happy”

“I love the presence of the swings so much. I’ve spent multiple occasions hanging out with friends and swinging on them, and there have definitely been times when I’ve been in a bad place… and the swings have helped.”
