Mission Statement

The Institute for Collaborative Research and Public Humanities is the humanities institute at Ohio State, and it has three purposes—to encourage cooperative research both among scholars in the humanities from Ohio State and elsewhere and between humanists and colleagues in the Arts and Sciences and elsewhere on campus, to promote the engagement of the humanities with the public culture beyond the university, and to foster experimental interdisciplinary education. It seeks to be a forum for interchange among people from on and off campus and a place where the University thinks about what it does.

The Institute was established in 1997 and has been underwritten by the College of Humanities, by the Office of Academic Affairs through an Academic Enrichment award, and by a generous special allocation for 2004-06 from the Ohio General Assembly and Governor Taft, and by project grants and gifts. Its offices and meeting spaces are located adjacent to campus in the George Wells Knight House, originally the home of the first chair of History at Ohio State.
