“We are all in this together,” said Casanova, a sociology professor and senior fellow in the Berkley Center for Religion, Peace and World Affairs at Georgetown University.

University of Denver to focus on "The Pursuit of Happiness"

DENVER—The University of Denver Bridges to the Future lecture series—which is free and open to the public—will focus on "The Pursuit of Happiness" in its sixth year of programming beginning later this month.
