The retention of 20 faculty and staff positions to enhance courses on indigenous studies and move content online.

Amid the challenging and uncertain coronavirus pandemic, Peninsula College proposes the Indigenous Humanities Culture and Language Project as a short-term solution that will: 1) protect humanities faculty and staff positions; 2) assist faculty in incorporating Indigenous humanities into online/remote instruction in summer and fall quarters; and 3)ensure that new digital collection resources and public programs related to Indigenous humanities and Indigenous culture and language preservation continue despite budget shortfalls. These project goals align with Peninsula College’s mission as a deeply community-engaged institution dedicated to equity and inclusion. The project will serve Peninsula College students and the general public, including particular engagement with and benefits to the six tribal nations the college is honored to serve.
