Initiatives
365 Days of Learning and Service
The Norman J. Radow College of Humanities and Social Sciences (RCHSS) goes beyond
research and study. During this 2023-2024 academic year, the 365 Days of Learning
& Service initiative encourages students, faculty, and staff to participate in learning
and volunteer activities that broaden knowledge about sustainability and increase
understanding about the depth and breadth of issues impacted by sustainability.
365 Days of Learning & Service challenges preconceived ideas, increases awareness, and inspires the KSU community to be agents of positive change by turning theory into action.

Professionals with Purpose
Professionals with Purpose is a forum for career exploration where students and leaders
examine career paths that emerge from studying the humanities and social sciences.
Select leaders from a range of fields become KSU scholars in residence for a day and
share their professional insights. Drawing on their training in the humanities or
social sciences and their real-world experience, these leaders offer an array of expertise
through public lectures, small workshops, and Q&A sessions for students and faculty.
Through these activities, students can learn best practices and challenges to launching
their own career after graduation. Professionals with Purpose recognizes that initiating
a meaningful career requires creativity, critical and analytical thinking, and social
understanding; all skills that humanities and social science majors gain through their
KSU studies.
Lessons in Leadership
The Norman J. Radow College of Humanities and Social Sciences’ Lessons in Leadership
forum provides its faculty and staff with professional growth opportunities that broaden
leadership skills and expand professional networks. This is a forum where leaders
from the greater metropolitan Atlanta area, as well as from Kennesaw State University’s
leadership. Dean Katie Kaukinen facilitates discussions with guest speakers, and both
a live and online audience, posing questions that guide a fluid conversation around
leadership skills and strategies.
