We all want to be happy. Research in psychology, sociology, philosophy, and business has explored the role of happiness in modern life. This website shares the efforts of Honors students and faculty at the University of New Mexico to investigate and apply common happiness practices to our own lives through a one-credit class. While only class members may post new content to this site, the general public is welcome to submit moderated comments.
