...Csikszentmihalyi (pronounced Chick-Sent-Me-High-ee) isn't the only social scientist working on this subject. Positive psychology has been exploding in popularity.

Subjects are beeped (via a pager or hand-held device) at random intervals during the day, usually every few hours, at which...

...curator of the museum now housed there. Spillane-Hinks spent her time lighting the hearth and leading tours, immersing herself in the Irish culture she’d been studying at Harvard since her sophomore year. Her name, to reiterate, is Aoife. Pronounced “EE-fah,” it’s quite possibly the most unusual name in the senior class. The Folklore and Mythology concentrator tells tales of her many nicknames (Queen Laoife being her favorite) and laughs when she recalls the identity crisis she had when she met another Aoife in the woodlands...
