<Title>Announcing the new Director of the Humanities Scholars Program</Title>
<Tagline>Kate Drabinski, Principal Lecturer in GWST</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content"><div>The Dresher Center for the Humanities is pleased to announce a new director for the Humanities Scholars program.<br></div><div><br></div><div>Dr. Kate Drabinski is Principal Lecturer in Gender, Women's, + 
    Sexuality Studies (GWST) and Associate Director of the <a href="https://gwst.umbc.edu/will/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Women Involved in
     Learning and Leadership (WILL+)</a> program. Her focus areas of teaching 
    and research include queer theory, transgender studies, LGBTQ+ history, 
    and public humanities pedagogies and practices. As co-PI with Dr. Carole
     McCann on the Mellon-funded Affirming Multivocal Humanities grant, she 
    organizes the UMBC LGBTQ+ Oral History Project, bringing students into 
    conversation with queer people both on and off campus to record and 
    preserve the histories of our communities. Her latest publication is <em><a href="https://www.rutgersuniversitypress.org/baltimore-revisited/9780813594019/" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">Baltimore Revisited: Stories of Inequality and Resistance in a U.S. City</a></em>, co-edited with UMBC's own Dr. Nicole King and Dr. Joshua Davis of the University of Baltimore. </div><div><br></div><div>Outside
     of UMBC Dr. Kate is an avid explorer of Baltimore's history, present, 
    and future, usually on her much-loved bicycle. She leads walking tours 
    about the city's LGBTQ+ and Civil Rights histories for Baltimore 
    Heritage, where she serves on the Board. She organizes walking tours for
     students, faculty, and staff about the history of Pratt Street, public 
    transportation, urban renewal, and more. She is keenly interested in why
     where we are is as it is, and how it might be otherwise.</div><div><br></div><div>Dr.
     Kate is excited to direct the Humanities Scholars program after serving
     on the committee for nearly a decade and teaching the freshman seminar 
    several times. She was part of a similar program at her undergraduate 
    institution and knows intimately the power of cohort-based 
    interdisciplinary humanities teaching and research for making more 
    interesting, meaningful, and impactful lives for all of us. She looks 
    forward to working with students, faculty, and staff to continue 
    building UMBC's vibrant humanities community.</div><div><div><br><br></div></div></div>
