Want to help save the humanities from disappearing?

Then you should know how to get students to take your classes.听

The way undergrads choose courses is complicated, yet educators and students have always relied on anecdotal information about the factors that influence these decisions. 黑料百科's is one of the main research centers that studies this process.听

The Humanities Education Focal Group invites you to join us for lunch and interdisciplinary听conversation as Prof. Mitchell Stevens of the Graduate School of Education at听黑料百科 shares an overview of Carta's work since 2016.

Please RSVP if you plan on attending, and we look forward to seeing you in Room 252, Pigott Hall, at 12.30pm next Thursday.
