Humanities Day 2025

Join us for our third annual Humanities Day, a celebratory tribute to the richness and influence of the humanities!

This year’s Humanities Day theme, Against All Odds, will explore how individuals cultivate resilience through the inevitable challenges, detours, and setbacks that often accompany meaningful professional growth. Through our alumni panel and networking roundtables, we will be spotlighting those who have navigated non-linear career paths, broken into competitive industries, or made bold pivots that led to professional reinvention.
