Jenny Kaminer Named Director of the Davis Humanities Institute (DHI)
Jenny Kaminer has been named director of the Davis Humanities Institute (DHI). Over the past two years, Kaminer has chaired the DHI Visioning Committee, leading a collaborative effort to reimagine and revitalize the institute.
"I am confident in Professor Kaminer’s leadership to advance these goals and to strengthen DHI as a campus hub for connection and ideas across the arts, humanities and beyond," said Estella Atekwana, dean of the College of Letters and Science at UC Davis.
The renewed vision preserves DHI’s legacy as a welcoming home for faculty, staff, and students in the arts and humanities, fostering informal networking and celebrating one another’s work, while expanding the institute’s impact on campus and in the community. Key priorities include creating more undergraduate research opportunities and supporting cross-disciplinary collaborations within the College of Letters and Science and across other UC Davis colleges.
