“My work often crosses fields (history, literary form, American studies). 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.”

—Brandon Winford, Assistant Professor, UT Department of History
UTHC Faculty Fellow, Class of 2016–2017
