The Humanities Research Group invites University of Windsor students to answer the question: Why do the Humanities matter?

This year the question is more specific: “Why do the Humanities matter in times of crisis?”

The winning entrant will receive a $3,000 tuition credit. The deadline to enter is Oct. 30, 2020.

To submit, please send your entry directly to HRGmail@uwindsor.ca with the email subject “Why Humanities Contest.” Entries under 20 MB can be attached, over 20 MB please send a link to Vimeo or YouTube.

Finalists will be awarded and the winner announced at an online event on Nov. 13 at 1 p.m.

Thanks to the generous support of the Office of the President’s and Office of the Provost for sponsoring this award. HRG said it hopes that people will spread the word to UW students in their lives about this fabulous opportunity.
