What can a humanities education make possible?
It can help a student preserve the life of a nursing-home resident through careful listening, writing, and an unexpected friendship. It can take an MFA filmmaker from City College to Cannes. It can lead animation students to the CUNY Film Festival, bring a sharp new romance novel into the world, and transform a philosophy course into award-winning public-facing work.
The latest edition of the City College Division of Humanities and Arts newsletter celebrates the many ways our students, alumni, and faculty are telling stories, creating art, and connecting with audiences far beyond the classroom.

From diasporic memory and archival art, to the hidden labor of prison mail, to student and alumni creative achievements, this week’s Humanities & Arts newsletter highlights the many ways CCNY artists, writers, students, and graduates are making meaning in the world.
In this edition, we feature Diana Guerra, a CCNY DIAP MFA alumna and current adjunct professor whose Bronx Museum installation reconstructs erased family histories through found footage, photography, and social practice. We also share the second installment of Sophie Torres’s student internship series, which takes readers inside her work with PEN America’s Prison and Justice Writing Program and the fragile systems that connect incarcerated writers to the outside world.
We are also celebrating Black Studies student Ja’Quan Brown, who earned second place in the Margaret Walker Memorial Prize in Creative Writing, and MFA Creative Writing alumna Keisha Gaye-Anderson, who was nominated for a 2026 Pushcart Prize.
Read the full newsletter and follow along with the extraordinary work happening across the Division of Humanities & the Arts at The City College of New York.
