Minnesota Philosophical Society Undergraduate Conference hosted by the Philosophy Club at St. John's University on Saturday, April 17, 2010 - check back for more details

On September 9-12, 2010 Project Logos will be hosting a conference called Happiness: A Symposium. We envision participation from scholars from all four divisions discussing topics like: what is the connection between money and happiness? what sorts of cultural practices and political structures are most conducive for promoting happiness? what is happiness? how have our conceptions of happiness changed over time?  how do we know when we are happy? should we even care?

Robert Sapolsky, biologist, neurologist and science writer has accepted our invitation to speak at the conference.  Dr. Sapolsky is a MacArthur "Genius" Fellow, a professor of biology and neurology at Stanford University, and a research associate with the Institute of Primate Research at the National Museum of Kenya.
