Hey folks. Does anyone have any recommendations for websites that have humorous or uplifting news stories? I teach a large (60+) intro class and am trying to do something at the beginning of each class to grab their attention and personalize things a bit. News stories that are current and timely and that tie in some psychology concept would be great. For example, the other day someone sent me an article about a Mars Hills College student who undressed in the middle of a class when her professor told her that anyone who would disrobe would receive an A. Students thought this was funny and we tied in some psychology concepts related to authority and motivation. It was an entertaining start to the class. Anyone have any suggestions for website that have these kinds of stories?
