ÌÇÐÄlogoÈë¿Ú

The College of Humanities and Fine Arts is the largest and most diverse college at ÌÇÐÄlogoÈë¿Ú, with over 120 faculty. The College houses the following departments: Art and Design; English and Philosophy; Global Languages and Theatre Arts; History; Music; Political Science and Sociology; and Psychology. Our departments are located in several buildings, including Faculty Hall, Price Doyle Fine Arts Complex, Visual Arts Building, and Wells Hall.

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion

The foundation of the College of Humanities and Fine Arts’ mission is the study, appreciation, and artistic expression of human experience, and we cannot successfully fulfill that mission without the inclusion of diverse voices and perspectives in all of our endeavors.  At the same time, we recognize that long-standing structural inequalities continue to suppress and marginalize many of those voices and perspectives.  The College of Humanities and Fine Arts, therefore, has a responsibility to improve accessibility, diversity, equity, and inclusion across our programs and operations.  We’re committed to the active, regular examination of our policies and practices so that every member of our college community has equal opportunity to learn, contribute, and thrive.

As dean of the College of Humanities and Fine Arts, I am personally dedicated to this ongoing work with our students, faculty, and staff, our CHFA DEI Task Force and Committee, as well as our collaborative partners on campus, including ÌÇÐÄlogoÈë¿Ú State’s ADVANCE team, IDEA office, Human Resources office, and other entities.  Together, we strive to cultivate an environment that is safe, accepting, and supportive for everyone.
