In Gratitude...

Wow, things are really coming together for us! We wanted to formally express our appreciation to everyone that has helped us along the way. Thanks to Jack Christianson, Stasha Wright, and the Center for Engaged Learning at UVSC (as well as those on the Community of Engaged Learners grant committee(s)) for awarding the CEL grant to our project, this will really help make our project materialize! Thanks to Dean Bonnie Henrie and the School of General Academics at UVSC for supporting our project and approving our application for the CEL grant. Thanks to Scott Abbott, Don LaVange, and the Integrated Studies Department at UVSC for their constant support, and for their generous donation. Thanks to Eleanor Cleverly-Takahashi and Jack Waters and everyone at The College Times (independent newspaper at UVSC) for the amazing article on our project, and for their continued support. Additionally, thanks to the long list of people (that have not yet been named) who signed on to our CEL grant application, that give us advice, encourage us, support us, and help us in this massive process: Jans Wager, David Knowlton, Laurie Whitt, Larry Harper, Alan Clarke, Scott Carrier, Nancy Rushforth, Michaela Giesenkirchen-Sawyer, Phil Gordon, Errin Julkunen-Pedersen, Vegor Pedersen, Erin Donahoe-Rankin, Ben Rankin, Jason Grotegut, Ashley Thalman, Cade Thalman, Andrew James, Marissa Bernhard, Joey Mayes, and (of course) Alex Caldiero. We must be forgetting a few people...if so, we apologize. We certainly wouldn't have ever been able to (or even imagined that we could have) accomplish so much in so little time without so much help.

Sincerely,

-Torben Bernhard and Travis Low-
