KCSB-FM Interview with Alan Liu on 4Humanities
KCSB-FM’s Associate News Director Kendra Lee spoke with Alan Liu, co-founder of 4Humanities.org, in August 2016 about the importance of the humanities and the 4Humanities initiative’s activities, mission, and recently completed Shout Out for the Humanities student contest. The six-minute interview was broadcast and put online.
Printable “The Humanities Matter!” Infographic
In 2013, the University College London (UCL) Centre for Digital Humanities–in collaboration with 4Humanities–created an award-winning The Humanities Matter! infographic with statistics and arguments for the humanities in high-impact visual form. Instead of worn out sayings and factually ungrounded criticisms, The Humanities Matter! draws on published statistics and a crowdsourced poll to give a shout out to the humanities in sections on “What the Humanities Do,” “But the Evidence Shows,” and “Culture is Important.”
…and then our pile of professionally printed banners ran out.
So we created a printable, 8.5×11 version of the banner due to popular request.
