Yale offers a need-based financial aid, so anyone with a family income of $65k or below can attend for free! :) Students with a family income of $150k pay just the living expenses. That's beside the point, but I think that many students at top institutions focus so much on academics and extracurriculars that they neglect their mental health :(

yeah but what is the graduation rate, majority take 6 years to graduate from a four year univesity. The odds of low income studens graduatin is significaly less then those compared.

95% five-year graduation rate and 97% six-year graduation rate according to Yale.

Students that I work with , in middle America, are full of disappointment. They work hard to get into good colleges at all cost. The cost of Happiness is HIGH. I applaud this teacher. I applaud the attempt to help lead students down the hard road of finding the thing that not money, not jobs, not white picket fences can promise. Happiness comes from choices and hard work. Personally, I find joy in my investment in religion. The exercises could be paralleled by spiritual disciplines. I pray that more happiness is unleashed into the world.

All of our lives are predetermined meaning we do not have free will We can't have free will on earth because we are here to learn and pay karma God designed the world as a school of learning for his angels to Incarnate aspects of themselves on to earth Into physical bodies. So our happiness is subject to god and the angels will and according to a predetermined pathway we all Live. True happiness will be given to all of us in heaven when we return but for now we have to learn , at least we have something good to look forward too
