Taylor PhD will be presenting this seminar in Scales Chapel from 7:00-8:00 p.m. Dr. Taylor said, "Many people think of IQ when the word 'intelligence' is mentioned. There are many different types of intelligences, however. One of these is Emotional Intelligence or EQ. In fact, it appears that EQ may be even more important to your overall success in life than IQ! The equation may actually be: IQ plus EQ equals SQ (your success quotient). You can learn to become emotionally intelligent and enhance all your relationships."

Is there anything to the old saying, laugh and last? Where does laughter reside in the brain? Can it really alter brain chemistry? Why does one person laugh when another doesn't? Is there any evidence that laughter can improve one's state of health? What's the difference between having a keen sense of humor and laughter?
