Project Subject/Topic
Centered on a monthly reading group, this research cluster brings together graduate students from across campus to discuss scholarship on human emotions, compile a collective bibliography for further study, and hold a capstone event in spring that connects participants to a scholar who is modeling the kind of interdisciplinary approach to emotions that we hope to emulate. The overarching goal is to build a community of graduate students interested in exploring and contributing to the field.
