Leadership
Empowering teacher leaders and the next generation through professional development programming and mentorship.
National Humanities Leadership Council
The National Humanities Center has established a National Humanities Leadership Council to help prepare a select group of students with humanities-based leadership skills. Students accepted to the Council participate in a unique series of interactive experiences with humanities scholars and leaders from across the country. In round tables and discussion sessions, they explore the essential importance of humanistic perspectives in addressing the concerns of contemporary society. And, based on the consensus of the Council membership, they may also focus on specific projects and engagement with the communities at their institutions.
Teacher Advisory Council
Critical to the Center’s mission is the role of in-service and experienced teachers in providing relevant and critical perspective to our work. The Teacher Advisory Council supports the Center’s Education Programs for a one-year term of service. Chosen to represent multiple disciplines in the humanities, these teacher leaders accept an active role in the development, evaluation, and promotion of NHC materials and projects.
