Celebrate WVU’s Research Week and virtually join the 2020-2021 WVU Humanities Center grantees as they reveal their recent Center-funded research projects at the third annual grantee’s panel on Thursday, April 15, at 6:30 p.m.
In line with this year’s Humanities Center Speakers Series theme, “Public Matters,” the fellows and collaborative grant awardees will offer short, ten-minute presentations followed by a brief Q&A, disclosing their work in exploring multiple ‘publics,’ what matters to those communities and how they are perceived by the rest of society.
