What Difference Do We Make?

Research at the Stanford Humanities Center

How does the research conducted at the Humanities Center make a difference in the world? How do our fellows manage to keep that difference in sight as they do the work of scholarship? Three current Humanities Center fellows will provide brief responses to these questions, followed by a Q&A discussion moderated by SHC Director Roland Greene.
