array of disciplines and collaborate with various NYU departments and
scholars. The responsibilities of the Tiro a Segno visiting faculty
fellows include teaching both graduate and undergraduate courses on the
experience and contributions of Italian immigrants and Italian-Americans
to American culture and society. The content of the courses ranges from
sociology of immigration to anthropology of ethnic identity, to ItalianAmerican achievements in literature and in the visual and performing
arts.
