Is happiness an illusion? Veritas Forum asks the big questions

Students and community members gathered on blankets at Meyer Green on a warm Thursday evening last week, hoping to find an answer to one of life’s most important questions: What is happiness? Most importantly, is happiness an illusion and, if not, where can we find it?

The event, organized by the Veritas Forum, a Christian student organization whose goal is to “invite university communities to dialogue with respect and curiosity about ideas that shape our lives,” featured David Spiegel and David Carreon, both psychiatrists.
