My interactions with the fellows at the Center revealed that the cross-disciplinary connections in my scholarship could build upon and serve as a foundation for work in other fields, thus making my work that much more valuable in a variety of different contexts.”
—Katie Burnett, Assistant Professor of English, Fiske University, Member, UTHC Board of Friends, UTHC Graduate Fellow, Class of ’12–’13
“[As a fellow at the Humanities Center] I had the opportunity to work on my book daily without the distractions that come with the normal responsibilities of being a faculty member. I could come to work at the Humanities Center ready to think, write, reflect, brainstorm, and analyze—truly invest my time and energy in the historical process and everything it entails.”
