large income is the best recipe for happiness I ever heard of,” declares Miss Crawford in Jane Austen’s Mansfield Park. We might be tempted to agree, “A although we realize that our dream of winning the lottery won’t bring true happiness. Once our basic needs are met, studies show, money won’t bring happiness. Neither will the fleeting pleasures of Godiva chocolates or a soothing foot massage. If we take a look around, at the problems in the world, we might be persuaded by Tennessee Williams that “happiness is insensitivity,” or by Woody Allen’s lament, “Life is full of misery, loneliness and suffering, and it’s all over much too soon.” But genuine happiness is about life satisfaction and an enduring sense of well-being. And there are good reasons to court it: Research shows we live longer, healthier, richer lives when we’re truly happy.

Dick Gotti The search for happiness is one of the oldest searches of all. In nearly every culture people see happiness, whatever its source, as a primary goal. While poverty obstructs happiness, some of the poorer countries of the world report life satisfaction levels higher than some wealthier nations. Although happiness isn’t easy to define, we know when we feel it. And now we can actually see it. With PET scans and MRIs, researchers can watch the brain’s left frontal lobe light up when we report positive feelings.

Aristotle tackled the meaning of happiness. He found it was the motivating force and end goal of life, not a state of mind or fleeting pleasure, but something we worked toward all our lives. How? By living the virtuous life, he said, doing good deeds and valuing relationships, contemplating and reasoning, and enjoying some material goods. This kind of full, balanced living produced what he called eudaimonia, a sense of well-being. Recent twin studies have led to some surprising information. Our genes seem to play a role in our individual capacities for happiness. We come into the world equipped with a set range for happiness. Like the house thermostat, environ- mental changes can temporarily alter the setting. A job loss or the rush of new romance can lower or raise our happiness levels, but eventually the thermostat settles. Even after a major accident and physical trauma, people later report a level of happiness similar to what they felt before the accident. There are exceptions, of course. A whole series of bad events, or certain severe and long-lasting ones, can alter our perspective.

Genes don’t determine destiny, and there’s always the interplay with the environment. We can maximize our inherent capacities. According to researchers like Martin Seligman, a leader in the new positive psychology movement, which focuses not on what is wrong with people but on what is healthy, we can’t control what life brings us, but we can take control of how we live. In Authentic Happiness he maintains that by understanding our “signature strengths” and using them as daily tools we can indeed be happier. If we practice these strengths, such as love of learning, generosity, humor and forgiveness, we foster positive emotions that move us into the upper ranges of our set levels. This also brings us closer to living out the six nearly universal virtues: wisdom, courage, love, justice, temperance and transcendence. (continued on page 2)

Her fascination with humor blossomed after that workshop by the Humor Project. She was also struck by a book by Norman Cousins, a former Saturday Review editor, whose Anatomy of an Illness as Perceived by the Patient (W.W.

He found that the more belly laughs he got, the quicker he healed, and became convinced of the power of positive attitudes and laughter in fighting disease.

8 EMPIRE 2003 DONORS REPORT

Dear Friends,

Every year I welcome the opportunity to thank each of you for your generous support of Empire State College. It is particularly gratifying to note that 2003 was one of the most successful years ever for the Empire State College Foundation, with more than 5,000 alumni, employees, friends, corporations and foundations contributing a total of $944,108.

This success is mirrored in the achievements of the past year:

The college continues to see record enrollments, serving over 17,000 students last year, placing us among the largest compre- hensive colleges in the SUNY system.

With continued strong enrollments, our alumni population is expanding rapidly, pushing past the 40,000 mark to over 42,000 proud Empire State College graduates at the end of 2003.

Great strides were made towards the implementation of our new Master of Arts in Teaching program. A program director and six faculty members were hired to staff the program, which is on track to enroll its first class this fall.

Once again Empire State College rated very positively in the latest SUNY opinion survey, comparing responses from our Monte I. Trammer students with those from more than 2,400 students at the other 12 SUNY university colleges.

Securing the resources to preserve and enhance Empire State College’s tradition of excellence in education is one of the greatest challenges facing the college. Your generous support of the Empire State College Foundation helps to ensure that we will continue to design, implement and evaluate new approaches to learning to serve our current and future adult learners.

On behalf of our students, faculty and staff, I want to express sincere thanks to the more than 5,000 donors listed in this report for supporting Empire State College’s pursuit of excellence in education. We are deeply grateful.

Monte I. Trammer Chair, Empire State College Foundation Board of Directors

Albany Symphony Conductor Headlines Teach-in

What makes someone creative? What fields of endeavor are creative? How can someone make his or her life express more creativity? These were some of the questions raised by the Northeast Center’s annual lecture series and teach-in on creativity. The program opened with a talk in October by Albany Symphony Conductor David Allan Miller, followed in January by John Chaffee, an expert in creative thinking, whose seminal text Thinking Creatively Sixth Edition (Houghton Mifflin, 2000) is used in institutions of higher education across the nation. Chaffee directs the New York Center for Critical Thinking and Language Learning, and is professor of philosophy at City University of New York. His book, The Thinker’s Way: 8 Steps to Richer Life (Little Brown and Co., 2000), takes many of the concepts of his textbook, and makes them accessible to a general audience. The center then hosted a series of faculty-led teach-ins during the last week of January, which Conductor David Allan Miller explored “The Creative Process;” “Creativity in Practice” and “Creative Arts, Healing and the Human Experience.” Miller, who has established a reputation as one of the leading American conductors of his generation, spoke at the New York State Museum to an appreciative crowd of music lovers, students and Empire State College faculty and staff. So is conducting creative? Miller responded “no” over the protests of his audience, before taking them on a historical jaunt through the genesis of conducting in the 1300s, where one person would whisper to the other singers during a performance, to when the idea took root in the 16th century (with the first violinist as leader) to the 19th century, which saw the ascent of the “virtuoso conductors” exemplified in their spiritual heirs, famed conductors like Leonard Bernstein. Modern conducting, Miller explained, is about 150 to 180 years old. The “magical qualities of conducting” are symbolized in the conductors “wand,” which replaced the former practice of keeping time by pounding a staff. The great modern virtuoso conductors embraced the notion of interpretation as separate from creation, until Bernstein, for whom “it was all one thing,” Miller said. ❏
