Humanities Week 2023: Back to the Present. This IHGC-sponsored series of events is hosted by and for UVA undergraduates from across disciplines in a celebration of the Humanities!

Join us for some of our nearly dozen events, including a Back to the Future movie viewing, a "Human or AI?" trivia competition in Bryan, and a tabletop showcase featuring board games designed by ENWR students! : https://www.hw-uva.com/
