- Title
Philadelphia Dreaming: Discovering Citizenship between the University and the Schools.
- Authors
Lupton, Julia Reinhard
- Abstract
The article discusses the establishment of Humanities Out There (HOT), an educational partnership between the School of Humanities at the University of California in Irvine (UCI) and a local, largely Latino school district in nearby Santa Ana. The basic model of HOT is simple: a graduate student and a team of undergraduates go into a Santa Ana classroom 15 times over the course of the year, executing a content-rich sequence of humanities exercises designed in collaboration with host teachers. According to the author, the creation of HOT in 1997 was the most transformative public work in her academic life, wherein outreach efforts served as model for university-community engagement at UCI and across the U.S.
