LETTER FROM THE EDITOR
With each new quarter, we are excited to bring new research to the Northwestern community and beyond. In past issues, we have featured theses addressing concerns from many different fields and disciplines. Through the selected pieces, we hope you found ones you resonate with, others that push you to consider new perspectives, and, of course, those that shed light on the very topics we must consider within the Northwestern community and beyond.
For our returning readers, we appreciate your support, and, for our new readers, we welcome you to dive into the research that has entranced our readers and editors since the conception of the online NURJ journal. Now, more than ever, we strive to push the boundaries of what research means, and we are ever so thankful to all of you for continuing along the journey with us.
