Making the Case
Each year, the scholarly and other groups that make up the National Humanities Alliance come to Washington to try to win federal support.

The American Academy Commission on the Humanities and Social Sciences will this June deliver a report to Congress on what steps lawmakers, institutions and individuals can take to protect the future of the academic disciplines.
