Seth Peabody, Assistant Professor of German, has been selected as a Mellon Periclean Faculty Leader (PFL) in the Humanities. The program will provide support for developing a community-based project within a new A&I seminar entitled “Seeking Shelter in a Dangerous World.” In partnership with Greater Northfield Sustainability Collaborative (GNSC), first-year students will gather input on environmental issues, learn about a sense of “home” from diverse stakeholders in the community, and hone humanistic skills while tackling real-world problems. This Project Pericles initiative is supported by The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and The Eugene M. Lang Foundation
