Abstract Troubling signs about the state of humanities in higher education are not new, but the steady decline in humanities majors is cause for concern. The humanities, however, play a critical role in society and public life, promoting citizenship and public engagement along with valuable skills. There are untapped opportunities for expanding history, and more broadly humanities, appreciation through cross-disciplinary collaborations and stronger connections with pre-professional programs. History of higher education courses in higher education and student affairs (HESA) programs have the potential to introduce the value of the humanities to a new audience. This article presents the results of the study examining efforts to teach historical thinking skills and appreciation for humanities to future higher education professionals.
