Through the lenses of evolving cuisines and farming\/agriculture, I examine how industrialization and cultural exchange can develop and\/or erase critical historical and cultural human practices.

Aly is constantly dreaming up and carrying out innovative courses and workshops here at The Claremont Colleges and has received multiple Course Activity Grants from the Hive.

When Ryan arrived on campus, the course was no longer being offered. In his senior year, the course was still on his mind, so he decided to recreate the experience on his own \u2013 guided by the knowledge of the original professors.<\/p>\n<p>In collaboration with the Hive and professors Berg and Pantoja, Ryan embarked on an academic and experiential \u201cexploration of the deeply complex relationship between surfing and environmentalism.\u201d He was particularly interested in how culture and history have shaped the materials used to craft boards. He researched \u201csurfing\u2019s roots, exploring the ways surfboards were crafted before polystyrene foam, fiberglass, and epoxy resin came into the picture.\u201d His learning and building happened in parallel, informing each other as he went. Ryan just finished his first prototype, a paipo board, which he built in his garage over the summer based on his research and learnings thus far. He\u2019s excited to test it on the waves soon!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-4563 img-fluid\" src=\"https:\/\/colleges.claremont.edu\/thehive\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/47\/2023\/10\/unnamed-4-300x190.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"190\" srcset=\"https:\/\/colleges.claremont.edu\/thehive\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/47\/2023\/10\/unnamed-4-300x190.png 300w, https:\/\/colleges.claremont.edu\/thehive\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/47\/2023\/10\/unnamed-4-1024x647.png 1024w, https:\/\/colleges.claremont.edu\/thehive\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/47\/2023\/10\/unnamed-4-768x485.png 768w, https:\/\/colleges.claremont.edu\/thehive\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/47\/2023\/10\/unnamed-4-142x90.png 142w, https:\/\/colleges.claremont.edu\/thehive\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/47\/2023\/10\/unnamed-4-142x90@2x.png 284w, https:\/\/colleges.claremont.edu\/thehive\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/47\/2023\/10\/unnamed-4.png 1174w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Creativity Grants and You<\/h3>\n<p>If reading these stories sparked your imagination about what you might do with a creativity grant, you\u2019re in the right place. We\u2019re always looking for new projects and people to support through our creativity grants. A brief menu of options:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Student Creativity Grants:<\/strong>\u00a0This grant program supports students who need access to creative resources such as funding, materials, space, or mentoring for their important creative endeavors.<br \/>\n<strong>Course Activity Grants:<\/strong>\u00a0This grant program supports faculty (ideally interdisciplinary and intercollegiate teams of two or more) who want to infuse creative collaboration and feature experiential components of creating and making into their classrooms.<\/p>\n<p>This can also be a mix-and-match, faculty-and-student collaborative situation. You could bring your Course Activity Grant class to the Hive to work on their projects alongside similar Student Creativity Grant projects. Another thing to consider is that you\u2019re always welcome to use Hive spaces \u2013 maybe you want to host your class at the Hive or use one of our making spaces to bring more making into your class.<\/p>\n<p>Are you ready to take the next step?
