Acknowledgments
In particular, we owe a profound debt to Cathy Buerger, who, as part of her
responsibilities as a postdoctoral fellow with the Human Rights Institute, played an
invaluable role in bringing the conference to fruition. Without her intellectual
leadership in collecting and curating research materials associated with the conference as well as her enthusiasm and organizational skills in bringing the conference
together, this volume would not have been published.
Molly Land would like to thank the School of Law for summer fellowship
support for her research on these issues and Taylor Faranda Korthuis for her
research assistance in planning the conference. Kathryn Libal would like to acknowledge the School of Social Work for its ongoing support for her activities in the
Human Rights Institute and the Office for the Vice President of Research for
financial assistance in the preparation of the index for this volume. Jillian
Chambers would like to acknowledge her professors at both the School of Law
and the Human Rights Institute for their mentorship, encouragement, and commitment to providing students with meaningful opportunities to grow as writers
and practitioners.
It almost goes without saying that a project like this demands sacrifice from family
members at critical points of the editorial process. Our deepest thanks to our families
for their love, patience, and support throughout the production of this volume.
Finally, we dedicate this volume to Lyndsay Nalbandian, whose love, support,
and unfailing good cheer touched countless lives at the Institute and the University.
You are sorely missed.
