Quirk 2023 Editorial Team
Special Thanks
The editorial team wishes to recognize the support by all the special people at UIW, particularly key UIW faculty and administrators. Thanks to Dr. Lydia Andrad, Interim Dean of the College of Humanities, Arts, and Social Sciences, and to Dr. Tanja Stampfl, English Department Chair, without whom Quirk and all the wonderful projects we undertake would not be possible. Most of all, we also thank the brave writers, artists, and creators all across the country willing to put themselves out there to send us such wonderful work.
