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.
Despite a world-view that can seem dismal, psychologists, sociologists, anthropologists and theologians are making human happiness the focus of their research. The reason is not academic, they say; our survival may depend upon the answers derived.

DENVER—The 2006—07 University of Denver Bridges to the Future program is dedicated to "The Pursuit of Peace"—a concept that has both enticed and eluded global society. For millennia, wars have been fought over land, religion, people and politics. Movements for peace surface sporadically, some as response to the latest conflict, others in an effort to chart a new course for human interaction.
