Acknowledgments

Thanks first to Kerin Maguire, member of the Dickinson Class of 2017, and my diligent Mellon Foundation (via a Dickinson Digital Humanities Grant) research assistant during the summer of 2015. Kerin was essential in the establishment of the initial architecture, design, research, and writing of the Urbanatural Roosting web portal. See also Kerin’s music blog: http://kerscorner.com/ — a valuable website for anyone interested in contemporary music and a wide range of bands, styles, and sounds. Enjoy! See also:

Special thanks also to Brenda Landis, Multimedia Specialist in Dickinson’s Academic Technology office, and her staff–especially Ryan Burke and Andy Petrus–for continuing help with our IT, design, and software issues during the initial establishment of the site and its theme in WordPress during 2015.

I am also grateful to students in a number of my classes: Thoreau and American Nature Writing (ENST 111 and ENGL 101), Writing About the Natural World (ENGL 212), The Natural History Mosaic (ENGL 212 & Independent Studies), and Ecocriticism (ENGL 360) from 2011-2015. Their engagement and curiosity has been an important part of the thinking that has led me forward into a much wider appreciation and understanding of my own original idea: urbanatural roosting.
