They Teach What To Who?

First, let me show you the news.


British school to offer happiness lessons

LONDON (AFP) - One of Britain's leading fee-paying schools is to offer classes on happiness to combat the malaise in society caused by materialism and celebrity obsession, its headteacher announced.

"We are introducing classes on happiness," said Anthony Seldon, master of Wellington College, in Crowthorne, Berkshire, west of London.


"We have been focusing too much on academics and missing something far more important."


I know what you're thinking. That's not it.

They want to teach happiness. To people who live in dorms. College dorms.

I lived in a college dorm. Happiness was never a problem. Sleep, yes. Quiet, sure. Sanity, absolutely. But happiness? Never. Everyone was happy almost all the time. This one time, this guy got so happy that he ...no, nevermind.

But 'happy' was not a problem.
