In order to cultivate a community focused on teaching and learning amongst graduate students and postdocs, DCAL has established a Learning Community for Future Faculty (LCFF). The focus of this group is to share the rewards and challenges of college teaching, while digging a bit deeper into best practices and techniques for teaching. The LCFF usually meets monthly on the 2nd Monday of the month. In September we are meeting later to avoid conflicting events and we'll discuss topics and ask for volunteers to facilitate. Please come join in the planning!

ReD Associates: Putting the humanities and social sciences to work in the “real” world

Why do so many chronically ill people refuse to take the medicine they need?
How do you sell green solutions to people who don't care about pollution?
How is technology changing how people work, relax or play?



These are some of the questions we have answered for our clients– and we’d like your help.



ReD Associates is a strategy consultancy based in NYC and Copenhagen. We are experts at delivering insights into human behavior, and actionable strategies for how companies can turn those insights into business opportunities. Our international staff of anthropologists, sociologists, philosophers, political scientists, and designers employs approaches from social science and the humanities to study human behavior and everyday life.



We actively recruit graduate students with social sciences and humanities training to make sense of people and everyday life to solve some of today’s toughest problems. We take your theoretical frameworks, methodological training and critical thinking skills outside of the classroom and into the real world. Come learn about what we do, who we are—and why we want you.
