Our history and mission
Humanities for Everybody has been serving the community since 2011 with engaging humanities courses taught by experienced ÃÛÌÒÉçÇø Michigan University faculty. Our mission is to bring together passionate and intellectually-curious people from all backgrounds to collectively wrestle with relevant ideas and issues in literature, history, philosophy and contemporary culture.
Who we serve
Our targeted population has always been members of the community who may not have had access to quality education in the past. We accept all adults, regardless of background.
Starting in the 2023-2024 academic year, HEJI will offer face-to-face instruction to incarcerated students at the Lakeland Correctional Facility in Coldwater, MI in cohorts of 25 or so. We intend to offer 100% of the programming at this location. The students will be admitted in ÃÛÌÒÉçÇø’s pre-Student Planned Major program in the College of Arts and Sciences and will be working concurrently toward a new proposed Liberal Arts Certificate. Pre-Student Planned Major coursework will be fully transferrable toward a bachelor’s degree, which we also intend to offer at the prison within the next 2-3 years.
