What is happiness, and how does one achieve it? Aristotle says that happiness is the highest purpose of life. The Declaration of Independence says that the pursuit of happiness is an inalienable right. But happiness is not automatic, nor is it achieved by simply wishing or hoping for it. Happiness is the product of setting worthy goals for oneself and achieving them by following a course of honorable action in their pursuit. Carl B. Barney has written a wonderful new book that provides a blueprint for how to achieve lasting happiness. Get yourself a copy and start your own happiness experiment right away.

HOW DAVID FRENCH LOST THE PLOT: No, David French, we have no constitutional duty to subsidize Harvard.
Now, I’m not accusing David French of being blind to the struggles of Jewish students. I am accusing him of being blinded by the presence of Donald Trump. Are the president’s motivations political? Probably. So what? So are those of Harvard’s defenders.
Harvard, a private institution, can do as it likes. There’s nothing illegal about coddling extremists or pumping out credentialed pseudointellectuals. If the Trump administration failed to follow a bureaucratic process before freezing funds to the university, fine. Get it done. But what “constitutional principle” dictates that the federal government must provide this specific institution with $3 billion in federal contracts and grants? Giving it to them was a policy decision made by the executive branch. Withdrawing the funding is the same.
French reasons that the administration should, at very least, “target the entity and individuals responsible” for the bad behavior. Defund the Middle Eastern studies department, rather than, say, the pediatric cancer research department. I’m sympathetic to this idea. But funding, as we all understand, is fungible. Targeting one department will do nothing to change the culture.
Moreover, leadership is responsible for the culture. It allowed, nay, nurtured, a Middle East Studies department staffed by a slew of nutjobs. It’s not the only department. Think about it this way: There is a far higher likelihood of finding an apologist of Islamic terrorism than a Christian conservative on the Harvard faculty. Less than 3% of the Harvard faculty identify as conservative. There are real-world consequences for Harvard’s radicalism, as their grads are staffing newsrooms, influential law firms, and government agencies without ever hearing a dissenting view.
