Humanities Alliance
The Humanities Alliance initiative at Hostos is a program designed to support and enhance the study of the humanities in the college. Learning Communities (LCs) consist of relatively small cohorts of students who are enrolled together in two or more courses that are linked through themes, concepts, and/or assignments. They promote deep conceptual links across disciplines and strengthen connections to faculty, peers, and the college.
The initiative aims to provide students with a deeper understanding and appreciation of the humanities through a variety of resources and opportunities. Additionally, the initiative includes an emphasis on experiential learning, which allows students to apply their knowledge and skills in real-world settings. This might include opportunities for research, internships, and community engagement.
