With support from Teagle, the University of Nevada, Reno is revitalizing its Core Humanities Program curriculum.
Roosevelt Montás, Teagle board member and longtime Cornerstone faculty, spoke with The Chronicle about the role of general education.
Susanna Ashton (Clemson) presented on how she teaches Mark Twain’s Huckleberry Finn and Percival Everett’s James.
We can translate the crisis in the humanities into an opportunity to reach students across our campuses with full-time faculty and to integrate our disciplines into the life of our university, and most importantly, to enrich the lives of our students.
The students become not just active collaborators in learning, but the driving force. And it’s really, really remarkable to see students initially hesitant leaving feeling full of confidence.
