Surat University Welcomes 9 Cows: Libraries, Lawns, and Bovine Vibes Collide
Surat University’s campus cows now outnumber vending machines, as nine bovine residents graze outside the law library, promising “positive vibes” and a surge in searches for “cow therapy on campus” and “benefits of cows in education.” While students debate the merits of organic lawnmowers, administration insists the experiment is “strictly for student wellness”—hoofprints in lecture halls come at no extra charge.
Instead of a typical therapy dog, Surat’s university now offers full-size cows for “stress reduction” and “campus atmosphere improvement”—a strategy trending with “do cows help students focus?” and “animal-assisted learning in India.” One student quips, “It’s the first time I’ve prepped for finals with a cow as my study buddy.” Imagining late-night cram sessions interrupted by gentle mooing, the campus redefines higher education, one cud at a time.
Each cow is issued an official student ID and free campus Wi-Fi, ensuring every lecture features at least one unexpected tail in attendance, redefining “auditing a class.”
