To learn more about Lycoming’s Humanities Research Center, visit www.lycoming.edu/humanities-research-center or follow the HRC on Facebook (@LycomingHRC). In addition to pursuing grants and funding from external sources such as the National Endowment for the Humanities and the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, the College seeks private donor support. If you are interested in advancing the HRC and its initiatives, please contact Robb Dietrich, assistant vice president for major and planned gifts, at dietrich@lycoming.edu or 570-321-4401. A humanities space showcasing student research, internships, and international opportunities, as well as graduate outcomes, will make tangible the strength of Lycoming’s humanities programs, the diversity of educational opportunities at the College, and the successful careers our graduates enjoy. “We anticipate admissions tours that feature a visit to the HRC where prospective students and their families can see the humanities in action at Lycoming in the form of faculty-student interaction, digital humanities projects underway, students meeting with their humanities career advisor, a seminar course in progress, a colloquium presentation, and so on,” shares Leiter. “In short, we believe the HRC will provide a crucial enrollment tool for recruiting the brightest young minds — and more of them — to Lycoming.” In an effort to continue strengthening the College’s relationship with Williamsport and its surrounding communities, the HRC will host a variety of talks — both traditionally academic and more community-oriented, such as interviews and book readings — and symposia and conferences. Furthermore, it will provide a contact point for collaborative possibilities with local libraries, museums, and historical societies, and to work with the local school systems on programming that brings students to campus.
