The University of San Diego's Humanities Center is dedicated to the exploration of the human condition and the limitless ways in which human beings understand and interact with our world. The Humanities Center provides opportunities for USD not only to organize and coordinate liberal arts initiatives and programs for our campus community, but also to establish partnerships with the broader San Diego community and beyond. In this manner, the Center is engaged in the practice of what is known as “public humanities,” the meeting point of engagement and humanistic study, and manifests its commitment to ensuring the accessibility of the humanities to our wider community.
