Institute gets challenge grantThe Institute for the Arts and Humanities' second challenge grant from the National Endowment for the Humanities will help fund opportunities for a range of new programs such as a named lecture series, an annual symposium, collaborations with university museums, and civic and educational outreach. The challenge grant also will make possible a number of outreach initiatives, which will serve to broaden the discussion of the humanities and arts beyond the University.
