Thank you to the editors and special edition editors of these journals. Many people have guided and supported me throughout my dissertation process, and I’m delighted to have the opportunity to recognize them. I am grateful to my committee, exemplary scholars who challenge me to deeply engage and critically think through my project. My advisors Erika Lee and Jigna Desai have been everything I could ask for and more, both phenomenal academics who motivate me to be a better scholar, teacher, parent, and community member. Erika is a formidable historian who has provided me with invaluable training, always asking the important “why?” of my research and project, especially my contributions to Asian American studies. Erika encourages me to “embrace my inner historian,” and I would like to state for the record that she inspires me time and time again to research and write important, compelling, and creative historical narratives.

  • LIAS Biology Students Looking for Old Whales
    Soundings 2007-02-16 Item Type Journal Publisher University of Alaska Southeast Download date 24/09/2021 17:19:25 Link to Item http://hdl.handle.net/11122/5166 LIAS Biology Students Looking for Old Whales Two UAS biology students spent their winter break at the National Marine Mammal Lab in Seattle working with Sally Mizroch to convert research photographs of humpback whale flukes from standard to digital formats. Photographs of the underside of a whale's flukes can be used to estimate population size and calving rates, as well as track migration patterns and local movements. Ryia Waldern and Leslie Curran, both students in Beth Mathews' whale research course, worked with Mizroch to convert photographs taken in waters near Juneau 30 years ago by Chuck and Ginny Jurasz. These images will then be compared to more recent fluke IDs to see if any of the whales are still alive and feeding in nearby waters. After her internship at the National Marine Fisheries Service's Seattle facility, Waldern commented that she had "obtained a huge knowledge about life as a researcher ... as well as an in-depth look at how to match flukes more effectively." To learn more about the project watch the video on YouTube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XW 1 wqKG9uS A College Goal Sunday Events College bound Southeast high school students came to locations in Juneau and Sitka last week to participate in College Goal Sunday.
