The <\/span>Public Humanities Collaborative<\/span><\/a> (PHC), a new component of Trinity\u2019s Summer Research Program funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, will bring together students, faculty, and Hartford-area humanities partners to explore themes in the humanities and creatively engage both scholarly and public audiences. Through this program, students will have the opportunity to engage with multiple methods and contexts for creating new knowledge in the humanities by participating in small teams that work on faculty scholarship, on partners\u2019 public humanities projects, and meet regularly to learn about community collaboration and digital tools. For this inaugural summer, over fifty students applied, and PHC selected sixteen students to work on eight faculty and eight public humanities projects with each student receiving a $3500 stipend as well as summer housing during this 10-week program.\u00a0The Public Humanities Collaborative is coordinated by Megan Faver Hartline, Associate Director of Community Learning at Trinity College <\/span><\/p>\n
