In The Class

Dr. David Sitt, professor and deputy chairman of the psychology department at Baruch College, will introduce a course in spring 2011 that is geared towards positive psychology.

Positive psychology is based on the principle that all human beings have an innate desire to live happy, fulfilled lives. It focuses on spreading positive emotions that result in the optimal functioning of people, groups and institutions.

In an interview with The Ticker, Sitt disclosed what the course will truly entail and what Baruch students can hope to gain from taking such a course.
