About The Good Life Program

The Good Life Program was developed through a collaboration of the following university departments: 

College of Liberal Arts

The Good Life Program is part of the College of Liberal Arts Humanities Initiative, a program designed to foster innovation, collaboration, and a deeper public understanding of the humanities. The Humanities Initiative focuses on:

• Encouraging collaboration between disciplines to promote a more integrated approach to learning.
• Creating spaces, both intellectual and physical, where new ideas and innovative thinking can flourish.
• Enhancing public awareness of the importance of the humanities and its role in shaping society.
• Strengthening and coordinating existing programs to maximize their reach and impact.
• Supporting scholars as they transition in their careers by providing time, funding, and resources to explore new research avenues.
