Public scholarship is more important than ever as universities seek to demonstrate the value of their ongoing research. Being a public scholar can not only benefit your institution but also be personally meaningful. It can help scholars make their work more visible, participate in crucial conversations, and perhaps even contribute to policy change. However, what appeared to be innocent op-ed, can at times provoke public criticism, or another backlash. A panel of experts will discuss the joys and risks of engaging in public scholarship while also addressing how to keep yourself safe.

Join Robert Townsend, from the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and AAR Committee leaders to learn more about the Humanities Indicators survey, particularly for religious studies and theology, the crisis in the humanities and what we can do about it. The Humanities Indicators is a nationally recognized source of nonpartisan information on the state of the humanities, providing researchers and policy-makers with better tools to answer basic questions about areas of concern in the field.

How can faculty and administrators respond to this moment of change in higher education? With the closures of departments, the impact of current policy shifts in funding for research and higher education, and the increased reliance on contingent labor; from students to those on renewable 9-month contracts — what can AAR members do to better understand these shifts? Equally important, what do we do about them?
