I spent the last five years serving public history, arts, and culture at NEH. Please take a moment to let your representatives know you support NEH. Or read on and I can tell you a little bit about why I believe in public funding for the humanities.
On Monday, March 31, 2025 we learned that DOGE is targeting the NEH with the aim of substantially reducing its staff, cutting the agency’s grant programs, and rescinding grants that have already been awarded.

This was so great! Went to today’s session while waiting for my flight. There’s another one tomorrow! @katopodis.bsky.social is a wonderful workshop leader!
New teaching workshops in Jan! We'll brainstorm + commit to our priorities so we know what to say "yes" to & why, & what we can say "no" to when we have good reasons. I'll also share my student self-evaluation assignment. Register here! us06web.zoom.us/meeting/regi...

Back to school! Here’s hoping my students are more enthusiastic about this semester’s readings than my dog is.
