Faculty are the heart of the Cleveland Humanities Collaborative. The program seeks to establish strong relationships between faculty at Tri-C, Lakeland CC, LCCC, and CWRU, knowing that our collaborations will support students in their academic and career goals. We are all champions of humanistic study and serve as enthusiastic advocates of its benefits.

There are multiple ways that faculty can be involved in the CHC. You can bring students to events, welcome CHC representatives and advisors into your classes, attend events both large and small, speak at gatherings about the program, or enlist your colleagues in the work.

Faculty can offer to guest lecture in a class, or request a guest lecturer for their class. If you’re interested in either option, please email Allison Morgan at allison.morgan@case.edu.

 

If you’re a Tri-C, Lakeland CC, or LCCC faculty member:

  • You can schedule a time for CHC leadership to visit your class to talk about the CHC program and the importance of the humanities.
  • You can encourage you and your students to attend CHC events.
  • Participate in CHC faculty activities.
  • Visit our Events page to see what is coming up, and if there are any events that tie in specifically with your curriculum. Let us know how we can facilitate special access for your students.
  • Talk to students who you think are good fit for the CHC and put them in touch with the CHC advisor at your home institution.
  • Let us know your ideas about recruiting students, events that you would like to plan, or other ideas you have for the CHC.
