Do you enjoy looking at the sky? Ever wonder what that bright object in the sky was? Then this is the class for you. In five fun, fact-filled, and engaging sessions, learn how to enjoy the sky with both the naked eye and optical aid; understand how the sun, moon, planets, and constellations change positions throughout the year; see our solar system up close and personal; use astronomy apps to guide you around the sky and learn how to use binoculars and/or telescopes to further enhance enjoyment of the heavens.

Students will focus on techniques and workbook assignments in small groups and as a class to engage with the plethora of literature on positive psychology and happiness. Workbooks need to be purchased in advance of the class for a nominal fee. Attendees should bring their own brown bag lunch, and the class will break for a 30-minute lunch flanked by 1-½ hours of class time before and after. The class also includes videos; discussion; and break-out sessions in groups of 3-5 people to discuss workbook applications and the efficacy to impact one's level of subjective well-being.
