The Science of Happy - Thursday, Feb. 18, 7:00 p.m. @ Wege Ballroom

Do you ever wonder what makes us happy? What doesn't make us happy? Why some people are happier than others? Why happiness matters in the workplace and at home? There is a growing body of significant research on who is happy and why. In this presentation, Tim takes you though some of the findings that many have found to be surprising, unexpected, and compelling! Come and discover the FIVE key components to happiness. And, why happier people are better workers/students and more productive.

Event sponsored by the School of Education, Academic Learning Services, Continuing Education and Health and Wellness.

Students wishing to take education coursework requiring passing test scores and who will not receive the MBST scores in time to register for upcoming courses have the opportunity to take the AQ Skills Test. Contact the School of Education at (616) 632-2800 for more information or to schedule an appointment.
