Contact: [email protected] Editors’ Note As we end our term as general coeditors of WSQ, we pause to reflect on the work of the past three years. The six double issues of the journal pub- lished in that time—Solidarity, Child, The 1970s, Survival, Queer Methods, and now At Sea—contain cutting-edge feminist scholarship and creative writing by thinkers across and beyond the academy, from graduate stu- dents and distinguished professors to independent scholars and artists. It has been an honor to publish and build relationships with our authors, on whose intellectual and creative labor we rely to fulfill and extend the vision of our issue editors and editorial board. We could say what we feel: we are at sea, set adrift by the election of Don- ald Trump. The grim and ignorant promises of Trump’s campaign make us queasy, seasick, sick. The metaphor explodes, breached by the literal. We are sickened. Most of the work of editing WSQ is deeply collaborative, and because that work happens behind the scenes we want to publicly celebrate it here.

Editors' Note The 1970s was a foundational decade for women's studies. In the first issue of the Women s Studies Newsletter, published in the fall of 1972, Florence Howe surveyed the burgeoning field, writing, "Two years ago . there were two womens studies programs at Cornell and at San Diego. There are now, as of yesterday s mail, 46 programs, most of which are located up and down the west coast; in New Mexico and Arizona; north of Maryland on the east coast and as far west as Buffalo and Pittsburgh" (Howe 1972, 2).1 "Yesterday s mail" would have been delivered to the Feminist Press, which Howe had founded in 1970 and which continues today as one of the oldest feminist publishers in the world.2 Howe, who would later describe herself as "the historian and record keeper of womens studies," was uniquely qual- ified to receive "yesterday s mail" and to comment on the state of the field under construction (201 1, 265).
