CREST
The Center for Citizenship, Race,
and Ethnicity Studies
CREST serves as a place for scholarly discourse and research of the vital
issues of citizenship, race, and ethnicity at the College of Saint Rose and across
the region. Through the sponsorship of two Dissertation Fellows—drawn from
a national applicant pool—and five Residential Fellows picked from the Saint
Rose faculty, CREST brings together a group of scholars that furthers this burgeoning
area of research and teaching that ideally draws on a variety of disciplines. It
is, in fact, the intention of CREST to foster a true interdisciplinary approach
to these topics. CREST researchers gain insights and methodologies from a variety
of disciplines, including history, political science, literature, geography, cultural
studies, anthropology, Africana Studies, Latino Studies, Asian Studies, American
Studies, women's studies, critical race studies, urban studies, legal studies, and
communication studies—to name a few.
To help bring scholars, students, and community members together, CREST will sponsor
a variety of events throughout the academic year. These will include a monthly colloquia
series in which Dissertation and Resident Fellows and area scholars will present
their research, less formal brown-bag lunch discussions, a lecture series, and,
ultimately, an annual national scholarly conference. It is the intention of CREST's
founders that these lectures and discussions will help to facilitate the scholarly
production of CREST fellows and members. Publication to more widely disseminate
CREST research and to help make CREST a vital center for the study of citizenship,
race, and ethnicity is one of the fundamental goals of the institution.
