The closet is meant to be an exploration of human emotions- more specifically, the emotions of tired college kids.

People originally thought the closet was installed by the school body itself but in actual fact it’s an art installation by one of the students.

The closet is the work of Nemo Miller, a student in the fine arts program and is titled Safe Place for Stressed Out Students Otherwise Known as The Cry Closet.

“I am interested in humanity and the inherent complexities of the human condition. In my work, I reflect on my experiences and explore what it means to be human,” Miller explained. “One aspect of humanity that I am currently exploring is connections and missed connections through communication. It’s been interesting to watch the response to this piece about human emotions, and I’m proud to see the power of art in action.”

And while the closet is just an art installation it is in fact designed to be used. School spokesperson Jana Cunningham said that students are actually encouraged to use it. “You can cry, scream, look your phone and decompress, and hopefully you come out feeling a little better in this crazy week of finals,” she said. “The closet will be up until the end of finals this week.”

As expected, many took to twitter to express their dismay at the state of the human race. Comments came hard and fast poking fun at the generation of kids known as ‘snowflakes’ due to their fragile nature. Many questioned what has happened to our kids that they now need a separate cry room to express their emotions.
