People

The Humanities Core faculty is a diverse and accomplished group of scholars who come together from across the university to deliver expert lectures and foster vibrant seminar discussions. You will study with trained specialists in various Humanities disciplines who in turn work closely with one another to provide you with a wide and deep perspective on what it means to pursue a Humanities education today.
