THE HUMANITIES RESEARCH CENTER The arts and humanities define who we are as a people. That is their power — to remind us of what we each have to offer, and what we all have in common. To help us understand our history and imagine our future. To give us hope in the moments of struggle and to bring us together when nothing else will.” - Michelle Obama he study of humanities is deeply rooted in the liberal arts curriculum. Outlined as an institutional priority in Lycoming’s 2021 Strategic Plan, the College opened a Humanities Research Center (HRC) in January 2022, designed as a comprehensive center for the humanities that serves student, faculty, College, and community interests related to the study of the humanities. The HRC will complement the continued commitment that Lycoming has made to the humanities disciplines, as well as provide a greater intellectual impact and a physical sense of community for students majoring in the humanities. It will also serve as an institutional office to promote and support the growth of enhanced academic experiences in the humanities. 10 LYCOMING COLLEGE 2022 SPRING MAGAZINE
