Abstract
Respondez! (1992-2015) became Respond, starting with the 2016 issue. Respondez! is a poem written by Walt Whitman in 1871 as a call to action. The Respond staff interprets Whitman’s poem as a call for new, emerging ideas to be brought fourth and challenged. The journal embodies Walt Whitman’s poem by aiming to publish informative research that challenges mainstream assumptions.
Letter from the Editors-in-Chief
This year, the Honor's publication Respondez! took on a magical transformation. With the recommendations of Dr. Christopher Boulton and the guidance of Dr. Gary Luter, Respondez! was renamed Respond. The aim of this rebranding was to professionalize the process of editing and accepting papers; this was no easy endeavor! We implemented new tactics, albeit not all of them worked. However, the dedication of our team members made this transformation possible.
We would like to give a special thanks to Dr. Gary Luter, who entertained and supported our radical ideas to change Respond to a new and dynamic process.
We would also like to thank Melanie Posner for being the mastermind artist behind our beautiful cover.
Finally, we would like to thank those who submitted work and those who have supported Respond throughout the years. Continue to research and write because you keep us going!
I would like to give a special thanks to Valeria, Elizabeth and Kendal for dealing with my extremely long emails and making this magazine possible. Being abroad during the production portion of the process showed just how important it is to have dedicated team members like them. -N
Our goal for Respond was to serve as a platform for students to showcase their work and share these ideas with others. We took on big challenges this year but with the help of our dedicated staff, we did it. I wholeheartedly believe this transformation will continue to grow and prosper. Thank you to Nikki and our awesome editors for doing all you do. Happy reading! -V
