"It's been a huge success in getting new people to turn out and try yoga and also just being around the animals lowers the blood pressure, helps your relax, being outside is something we don't always get to do in a yoga practice," Moss Arts CenterBox Office & Student Engagement Manager Kacy McAllister said.

"It was actually very calming. It was kind of crazy, one was trying to eat my backpack, it was a combination of being relaxed and having a good time," Blacksburg resident Emily Vanderbrink added.

And don't worry, they're planning to bring it back around other move-ins or maybe exam time.

Costs like $60K a year for this school...and I see they are really getting their money’s worth with goat yoga offered for FREE! Can’t beat that, can you?

My son goes there and it is nowhere near $60k a year. More like $15k. And it is an Ag school which is why they have goats.

Goats stink and have a continuous supply of fertilizer coming out their backsides. Yeah, that’ll be fun smelling that and trying to balance while stepping in something.

Rofl. Good work whoever created this. They discovered a way to cover liberals in poop while also looking stupid.

Goat cheese, OK, but goat yoga?

The spoiled, privileged airheads have the luxury of stretching their limbs and playing with goats? What is that supposed to mean? Is it just another wacko empty-headed fad?

I’m speaking of the full 4 years. I wasn’t very, clear. sorry.

My son attended Radford University although he was accepted at Tech (we live daily driving distance to both). Tech was more expensive than RU, and the same classes taught by the same adjuncts were offered both schools. Funny how that works.

OMG I’ve actually watched that movie with my husband one night. Was in the winter, we were bored to death stuck inside and it came on. All I remember is it was way, way weird.

Careful...

A bunch of muslim men will come looking for new wives, thinking it’s a dating site.

Hopefully they’ll use proper protection

to keep the goats safe.

Last year when Trump was elected, they had the “hug a puppy” thing going on at VA Tech as well for those who were “traumatized”. Those poor puppies :(

Radford has a bad reputation locally. Much of it has to do with the number of arrests from block parties that were eventually banned. But it is also considered a school of last resort by Blacksburg kids.
My son would have done better at Radford where there are fewer distractions but he was appalled by the idea. Right now, he is selling parking spaces at his house for move-in and has made about $300 from Virginia Tech parents so there is that.
