Director Pavesich reflects on the public state of humanities in his short essay Not If, But How. In his essay, Pavesich explores ways for teachers, students, and the community to engage in humanist partnerships. In collaboration with the National Humanities Alliance, the Federation of State Humanities Councils, and Routledge, Taylor and Francis, his work is featured in the Humanities for All blog which will culminate in the National Humanities Conference (NHC) held in November 2022.
