Using the Humanities to Navigate Covid-19 

COVID-19 was experienced as trauma, a moment of desolation, and an opportunity for renewal. Although experienced collectively, it was not experienced equally, and many of the communities served by community colleges bore the brunt of the economic, health, and social impacts. As humanities educators we have the privilege and responsibility to help students navigate the meaning, consequences, and possibilities of a world where COVID-19 is simultaneously something we live with and move beyond.

During this live, interactive forum, a panel of community college faculty members will discuss both the essential role of the Humanities in thinking about and moving beyond COVID-19, and how their classroom practice has been transformed by their experiences.
