During a four-year pilot program that starts next fall, 27 Ph.D. students at the Graduate Center will teach a wide range of humanities courses, including reading, writing, history, the arts, social sciences, and gender studies, at LaGuardia rather than at their own college. It's the first program that places graduate fellows into community-college classrooms as the primary instructors, and is a redefinition of graduate training," says Cathy N. Davidson, an English professor at the Graduate Center.
