[this is the second part of the discussions from the Future Humanities conference. See Part 2 here, and Part 3, here]

In May 2016, a group of students, faculty, and administrators from universities across Canada gathered at Carleton University to discuss the Future Humanities initiative and question what the future of the humanities PhD should look like – and how to get there. The discussion on the #FutureHumanities Twitter hashtag was energetic, responding both to the debates and talks happening live and conversations with distant participants.

Below is a collection of the tweets from the first day of #FutureHumanities, helpfully Storified by attendee Dominique Marshall (thanks Dominique!)

Highlights? Take a look for discussions about the impacts of interdisciplinarity, collaborative research, starting a family in academia, and more, on PhD paths.

For more information about the conference, including guest speakers and resources, see the Carleton Future Humanities website!
