As it's the start of a new year, we feel it's the perfect time to appreciate the more light-hearted things in life. We love a university that takes the time to put a smile on the faces of stressed-out students which is why we felt it our duty to paws (ahem) and appreciate Georgetown University's homage to some of TVs most iconic shows.

Barks and Rec
Our personal favorite in the series is a video starring Jack the bulldog as the entire cast of Barks and Rec. All the characters get a mention, including; Tom Haverfurr, Les-flea Knope and Ron Dawgson.
The video has almost 10,500 views and pawsitively great feedback from students! Take a bow Georgetown University.
