Interversity Quotes"I think it's time to ask the Standardistos: Where's the test for compassion? For honesty? For curiosity? For moral commitment? Until they can answer, let's tell them to shut up." —Susan Ohanian (One Size Fits Few: The Folly of Educational Standards) Interversity ProjectsEchoes of Orwell:The purpose of this webforum is to promote a lively discussion among students and faculty alike about George Orwell's 1984 and the parallels or echoes found in today's society. |

Vanuatu is world's happiest country: study __________________________________________________ Life expectancy for Vanuatu: total population: 62.85 years male: 61.34 years female: 64.44 years (2006 est.) Infant mortality: total: 53.8 deaths/1,000 live births male: 56.35 deaths/1,000 live births female: 51.13 deaths/1,000 live births (2006 est.) Maybe so many Vanuatuans die so early because of this: "a majority of the population does not have access to a reliable supply of potable water." I guess the secret to happiness in Vanuatu is not living long enough to get unhappy.
