Mission
Statement
The Whitney Humanities Center was inaugurated in 1981 as an interdisciplinary
institution built upon Yale's longstanding commitment to the humanities,
designed to enable and enhance research, thinking, and scholarly exchange
in all fields of the humanities and throughout the University. The
Center seeks to support and strengthen the activities of faculty and
students in the humanities and neighboring fields by creating an intellectual
community that transcends departmental boundaries and by fostering
collegial dialogue, informed debate, and the pursuit of new fields
of inquiry. The Center's programs include symposia, lectures, faculty
seminars and working groups. Some of these bring distinguished visitors
to the University; others are primarily designed for free and informal
exchange of ideas among faculty and students on topics of more than
disciplinary interest.
