Humanity: Everyone’s a Member
At the Gregory J. Grappone Humanities Institute, we are developing innovative ways to integrate humanistic thought and understanding into people’s lives. We know that humanity is one title we can all share in common and we believe that we are all called to be engaged students seeking to understand the world and our place in it.
At their essence, the Humanities cultivate human wisdom by engaging us in the ageless conversation about the meaning of our lives.
Discover humanitas, an interdisciplinary humanities journal of expressive student work and scholarship, sponsored by the Gregory J. Grappone Humanities Institute.
humanitas aims to feature the best student writing and artwork across disciplines in the humanities, including but not limited to academic analysis, narrative features, translations, exegetical reflective work, poetry, fiction, and illustration. The journal seeks to cultivate and showcase the distinction of Saint Anselm College through excellent student work.
