| Interdisciplinary Humanities Program on the History and Culture of Paterson
The development of an interdisciplinary and
place-based humanities minor that focuses on the writers, musicians, and
artists of Paterson, New Jersey.
The IHP-Prism Paterson employs
immersive place-based learning to engage 1st generation/at-risk
college students in the study of humanities disciplines by focusing on
Paterson's important writers, musicians and artists. Creating new experiential
courses in the humanities that reflect Felician University's 1st
generation students' identities will increase student engagement, improve
skills, enhance retention, and build connections between the city and the
University, while enriching humanities learning.
