School Project: Happiness In a new Honors in Action seminar called School Project: Happiness , students explored two essential questions: How do we work? and Why do we work? Led by by Associate Professor of Communication Andrew Pyle, the class combined research on productivity, time management, and well-being with experiential learning across disciplines. Over Spring Break, students traveled to the Fritz-Schubert Institut in Heidelberg, Germany to participate in an intensive workshop on the science and psychology of happiness. There, they examined how motivation, relationships, and purpose shape meaningful work and personal fulfillment. By blending classroom study with global experience, the seminar encouraged students to connect theory to practice and to consider how balance and well- being can influence achievement — an example of innovative, integrative, Honors-focused learning.
