Gene Andrew Jarrett, dean of the faculty at Princeton University and the William S. Tod Professor of English, has authored an op-ed titled “Defunding the NEH threatens more than just the humanities.” The piece was published by The Hill on May 10, 2025.
“We must recognize that advocating for the humanities entails advocating for all branches of research and education, including the sciences — and vice versa,” Jarrett said, in the piece. “And we must ensure that federal advocacy for advancing academic research and education persists.”
