Entertaiment is anything that puts you in a euphoric state and makes you forget about your life and problems. It could be music concerts, theater, dance or any kind of sports event. But entertainment should never hurt anyone or fall below human dignity. The word comes from the Latin intertenere and Indo-European root ten. Its synonyms include amusement, fun, merriment, playfulness, enjoyment, and pleasure. Several organizations and institutions contribute to our societal need for entertaiment. For example, the SU2C model emphasizes collaboration among world-class scientists and accelerates the pace at which breakthroughs in cancer research become treatments for patients.
