This toolkit is part of a larger project funded by a 2022-23 Humanities Connections planning grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities. The project, “Core Humanities: Integration through Curriculum, Campus, and Community,” seeks to build long-term investment in the engaged humanities at the University of Portland. Directors Molly Hiro and Jen McDaneld are working toward this in two ways: first, infusing UP’s new Core with engaged humanities approaches by supporting faculty in the development of new X-level courses; and second, researching models for the creation of an Engaged Humanities Hub on UP’s campus that will house a variety of humanities initiatives that support students and faculty in engaged work.
