Who We Are

Welcome to the Gregory J. Grappone Humanities Institute at Saint Anselm College. Established in 2018 with a generous gift from Robert and Beverly Grappone, this Institute represents several years of thought and planning by Saint Anselm faculty who seek to affirm and invigorate the College’s 128 year-old commitment to humanistic studies as an integral part of a Catholic Liberal Arts Education.

Join the Conversation

On a weekly basis people of all backgrounds and various points of view are contributing to a vibrant conversation about the Humanities and their place in our current culture. Scholars, public officials, journalists, and commentators debate whether the true benefit of the humanities resides in their inherent and intrinsic value or in their proven capacity to help people develop skills and talents that improve their professional prospects and benefit the organizations they serve.

Come Friday Forum

Each Friday, during the college common hour from 12:30-1:20 p.m., the Humanities Institute hosts an open, informal discussion led by a member of the Saint Anselm faculty, staff or monastic community. This forum invites people from all parts of campus to come together with others who are willing to open their lunch bag and their mind to a question about our humanity. So, come Friday, pack a lunch and join the human conversation in the LaMalfa-Kelly Common Room of the Grappone Humanities Institute. A Zoom Link will be provided weekly for those wishing to take part remotely.
