Back to Fall 2021

Acknowledgements

There is no shortage of wonderful people to thank for their assistance, encouragement, and succor in helping pull together this phenomenal 45th anniversary issue.

The most heartfelt, sincerest thanks to the following:

The Hamilton College Literature & Creative Writing Department, especially to Professor Tina Hall.

The Dunham Basement Letterpress, especially to Seth Gottlieb and his astute eye & to Bella Moses and her boundless creativity.

Gary Dillon & Yvonne Shick at the Hamilton College Print Shop. Without you, we would only ever remain a digital hypothetical. Every semester, I am surprised at the efficiency, speed, and impeccable precision and beauty with which you print out our issues.

Our head editors, Samantha Chen, Jesse Gross, and Randy Trystant, and our layout editors, Alison Isko, Maia Macek, Abigail Moone, Bella Moses, and Hannah Terao. Thank you for your time, your energy, your synergy, and your profound insight.

Gregory Duke for all his time in the archives looking for Red Weather alumni. 400 plus names over 40+ years is not easy.

Charlie Guterman for her incredible cover art.

Our incredible, whipsmart e-board. For the hours you all spend reading and reviewing, and for your thoughtful, graceful discussions.

The Media Board, Noelle Niznik, and Alexandra Reboredo.

Emily DiBari & the Alumni Relations Office.

Everyone who submitted. I am always astounded by the diversity of creativity on campus and grateful to have the opportunity to review these works.

All the alumni who were once a part of Red Weather and who will always, through their lasting influence, be a part of the publication.

The wonder one feels in flipping through past issues is very special and specific—the creativity, passion, and joy that goes into every issue throughout the years is palpable and electric.

Jo Pitkin: without you, there would be no Red Weather and no forty-five years to celebrate. You are a trailblazer in every sense of the word.

& of course, dear reader, always, always, always, to you.
