Humanities Center at Texas Tech
The Humanities Center Announces Its Theme for 2025–2026
The Humanities Center at Texas Tech was founded in 2015. As the Center begins its second decade, programming for 2025–2026 will focus on Humanity. This theme provides a broad site of analysis to investigate both past and future, innovation and tradition.
In the face of advancing artificial intelligence, it is more necessary than ever to define what it means to be human. Across programming and research, the Center has explored this question through interdisciplinary humanities scholarship.
Call for Participants: Scholar-in-Residence Workshop
This culminating discussion engages ecocritical and Indigenous perspectives (Roy Scranton, Timothy Morton, Elvia Wilk, Gerald Vizenor) to explore friendship and care as dimensions of reading in the Anthropocene, considering how texts, like ecosystems, outlast us and invite responsibility toward future generations.
