StS: The Magazine

From 2015-2019, Sowing the Seed operated as a social media magazine for teacher-scholars that models enriched conversation on the issues too important not to talk about. Contributors came from across the humanities and social sciences, sharing their insights in the interest of making the academic far less academic. Thanks to collaborators below for making this phase of Sowing the Seed a resounding success.
