You are arguing about the curriculum of a newly established college as if it were the research focus of the entire humanities.

Diversity doesn't come from exotic trips but the matetial you cover and the way it is taught and debated. All classic texts are freely available. For centuries that was enough.

There can be trips and such once money is available. For that you need some alumni to get donations. They will not be there if you don't start teaching which is, for humanities, possible with a minimal budget.
