Town School for Boys
Christina Anzel
On Wednesday, March 13th at 9:15am (at Town School for Boys), psychologist Dr. Laurie Santos will be speaking about what makes humans happy. Dr. Santos is an expert on human cognition, its origins, and the evolutionary biases that influence our life choices. As a professor at Yale and a research scientist, Dr. Santos teaches happiness and well-being via behavioral change (through positive psychology). Dr. Santos believes students can learn tools to be more grateful, procrastinate less, and increase social connections. She believes those positive habits will decrease mental health issues among students and create happier, more motivated people.
