Carleton Humanities Social Society

Carleton Humanities Social Society Fostering community within Carleton's College of Humanities. The College of the Humanities is a unique and special place in both Ottawa and the world.

During our time here as students, we are moved to question, improve, and move towards the educated, good, individuals we strive to be. Equally important and valuable to our own self­ development as the books we read are the conversations and interactions we have with our peers, conversations which cause us to question our own ideas and broaden our understanding. Given the importance of these frien

dships and discussions, we hope to foster an atmosphere of collegiality amongst all students within the college through the creation of the Humanities Student Societies. By creating six groups of students from all years of the program, and one group for alumni and professors, we aim to connect students of all years with each other and within the communities they are a part of. This will be accomplished through events and activities designed to engage students with others in the program as well as with the Carleton and Ottawa communities. By building these inter-­year relationships our aim is to create an inclusive and cohesive program while also presenting the students with opportunities for leadership, personal growth, and mentorship.Overall the goal of the Humanities Societies is to make each student’s time in the program a positive one by facilitating the building of meaningful relationships with their fellow students, professors, faculty, and alumni. These relationships will not only make the students’ time in their undergrad more enjoyable, but will present opportunities for networking and community involvement in the future.

Angel Xing (she/her), this year’s HSS secretary, is going into her second year of journalism and humanities, and she's worried about the geese on campus. She loves things that are good for her, like reading, petting dogs, and basking in the sun. But she also loves things that are bad for her, like spicy food, ice cream, and leaving for the bus stop a few minutes too late. You can always walk up and say hi if you see her on campus! Or you can send her an email ([email protected]) or a dm on Instagram ( ).
