Project Abstract
The Division of Arts and Humanities project plans to implement divisional workshops with junior and mid-career faculty; to sponsor public forums and lectures that engage timely, difficult, and complex issues of the day; to invite artists to present their work on the campus and the broader community to establish meaningful ties within and beyond the campus; and to establish a new faculty Q&A series, a mentorship structure across divisional boundaries, a manuscript forum, and a new annual event that showcases and celebrates major research contributions by junior faculty.
