MITCNC Event
The Philosophy of Happiness
Jun 06 - Virtual Event

We're hosting these events in partnership with Speakeasy, an early-stage startup offering intimate, online events with fascinating speakers and performers. Their vision is to bring the vibrancy of a university campus to people everywhere.

We want to be happy; we want those we love to be happy; and we want the communities to which we belong to be happy. But what is happiness? In this interactive seminar, we'll explore the ways different thinkers have answered these questions and what their views imply for our own pursuit of happiness.

We're offering a limited number of tickets for this event so that everyone who attends can ask questions and engage in the discussion if they'd like. We hope to create an intimate vibe, as if we're all together in someone's living room, so we'd ask that you keep your video camera on throughout the event.

Entrance into the event is on a first come, first serve basis. Once we hit capacity, we will not be able to allow additional people into the event. Please plan accordingly.
