What is TSSL?

Transforming Stories, Spaces, Lives: Rethinking Inclusion and Exclusion through the Humanities (TSSL) is a three-year Mellon-funded project that aims to foster humanities-based critical thinking, reflective scholarship, and civic engagement at Wellesley. Working closely with cohorts of faculty and student research fellows, we develop innovative, transformative, and equity-oriented humanities courses, research projects, and public projects. Our goal is to show how the humanities addresses essential questions and shared dilemmas.
