Susan Solomon

Faculty Fellow, Teaching & Learning Lab. Lecturer, Literary Arts and Studies

Susan L. Solomon has been teaching college students across the humanities curriculum for over 20 years. She holds degrees in comparative literature, English, and German from Brown University and the University of Connecticut, Storrs. Her publications include articles on literary modernism and transmediation as well as scholarly editorial and German-to-English translation projects. 

Her approaches to teaching and learning and faculty consultation have been shaped by her experiences as a Connecticut Writing Project Summer Institute Fellow and her earning of graduate certificates in reflective teaching, student-centered and backwards course design, and instructional consulting from the Sheridan Center for Teaching and Learning at Brown University. More recently, her pedagogy has benefited from faculty development opportunities at RISD—through sustained semester-length studies in decolonial teaching and inclusive writing, or intensive multi-day trainings on multilingual learning, teaching with AI, and Intergroup Dialogue.
