The grant funds the "Iona Black Humanities Initiative (IBHI) Project" which aims to build out Iona's existing Black Studies (BST) minor into a full major and integrate more diverse humanities content across the university's curricula.

  • Hosting a two-week summer symposium in 2025 for seven additional faculty members to revise their humanities courses to integrate content from Black Studies. These revised courses will be implemented in Fall 2026.

This project seeks to have a significant impact on Iona's program development and promotion of diversity.
