“Investing in the Humanities Center is investing in our entire campus and our entire academic community.”
—Joshua Ortiz Baco
Digital Scholarship Librarian, UT Libraries
Cutting-edge intellectuals brought to the public with lectures, discussion, symposia & conferences.
The center shares the study of the humanities with the public and, in so doing, brings new perspectives and valuable insights to important topics that affect every person. The “Public Humanities” are made available through programming like the Distinguished Lecture Series, Public Books Circle, Conversations & Cocktails, and conferences and symposia.
