- Education
The University's Living with Loss Series is a resource for grieving students and others who have experienced a loss. Student support group meetings are held on campus to present information about the grief process, provide an opportunity to discuss concerns, and offer additional resources. The informational component of each group meeting is taped in advance to provide greater access for all who may find it helpful. Living with Loss is available in two formats - video or audio only. Both versions can be viewed on either a computer or a handheld player such as an iPod.

Living With Loss: Pet Loss
Many individuals form very meaningful relationships with their pets. When a pet becomes terminally ill, the individuals or family are faced with many decisions - palliative care at home or in a veterinary hospital, euthanasia...how to say "good-bye?" Because our society does not regard pet death as a "significant loss," the individuals/family are considered disenfranchised grievers. The needed support provided by others is often missing. However, there are sources of support available in the community and online.
