Sarah Bonnie Humud

Sarah Bonnie Humud is the Associate Director of Honors Humanities. Her research and teaching specializations include early through contemporary multiethnic American literature, Native American literature, global women's literatures, global postcolonial literatures, critical race studies, postcolonial critique, and feminist theory. She has earned several teaching awards, including the All-S.T.A.R. Fellowship and the Triota Women's Studies Celebration of Feminism Award. Her research and scholarship apply postcolonial, feminist, and critical race studies to examine multiethnic American literature for the ways racialized colonial ideologies propagate as neutral, and even invisible, in nineteenth- and twentieth-century prose, poetry, government accounts, and legal discourse. She received her B.A. in English with honors from Tufts University, her M.A. in English from New York University, and her Ph.D. in English from the University of Maryland, where she received the generous support of the Ann G. Wylie Dissertation Fellowship, the Kwiatek Fellowship, and the James F. Harris Arts and Humanities Visionary Scholarship. Dr. Humud teaches Honors Humanities 106: “Arts & Humanities in Practice.” She co-teaches Honors Humanities 206: "The Honors Humanities Keystone" with Dr. Ontiveros.
