Seminar Leader: Dr. David Sanchez, (Associate Professor of Civil & Environmental Engineering, University of Pittsburgh)

Seminar Reading: Sheen, Fulton J. Way to Happiness (selection).

Seminar Description: Design your life: what do you need to be happy? What if there are no limits to what you can have? Where do you stop? A job that provides financial security with endless time-off? An in-person community of friends and family and non-stop world travel? The best of food/drink and to be more athletic and fit? How would you decide how much you need to be content? Are there desires once fulfilled that will sustain your happiness? What are the sources of discontent? In this seminar, Dr. Sanchez works through the relationships between contentment, hope and desire.
