The humanities continue to be undermined by funding cuts and demands to center education on strictly defined workplace roles. In my March 19, 2023 talk, “Getting Our Priorities Straight: Humanities and the Art of Living,” I draw on my experience as a high school dropout turned humanities professor to argue that the humanities offer college students and lifelong learners invaluable lessons in the art of living lives of intention and excellence.
Clips of the video lectures are available for public viewing on TikTok. I also invite readers interested in the value of the humanities to explore the previous pieces below.
