American Studies

Public Programs

American Studies students and faculty are actively engaged in academic and public work, often combining the two.  We seek opportunities for collaborative work with partners in the university community and beyond by co-sponsoring events and projects based in a shared vision of social justice, global awareness, and the power of critical analysis linked to local action.
