Gould Center Special Projects
2023-2024
“A CELEBRATION OF CREATIVITY” PROJECT
During the 2023-2024 academic year, the Gould Center will be conducting a project title “A Celebration of Creativity”.
Over the course of the year, the project team will organize monthly events highlighting creativity across the humanities. These events might include poetry slams, open mic nights, photography contests, art exhibits, debates, talks, and more. This list is meant to be a starting point; the exact shape of the project and the nature of the events will be determined by the team. The team will also conduct relevant background research and highlight events on social media and a specially designed website or blog. The project will culminate in a largescale Creativity Fest planned by the team.
2022-2023
“FOCUS ON FACULTY” PROJECT
This year, the Gould Center will be conducting a project titled Focus on Faculty. Over the course of the year, we will be producing a series of “focus features” on faculty and then bringing the features all together on a website. This project aims to connect students with faculty, engage students with faculty research, highlight faculty research to the community, and thereby highlight the power of humanities research to the community.
2021-2022
“75 BOOKS” PROJECT
To celebrate Claremont McKenna College's 75th anniversary and continue the Gould Center's mission of humanistic inquiry, the Gould Center is excited to present the 75 Books Project. Throughout the 2021 - 2022 school year, the Center will be posting a total of 75, 1-minute videos where different members of the CMC community will share a meaningful book that has impacted them and why.
