Dr. Kathyrn Winograd

Dr. Kathyrn Winograd served as the advisor for this year's Progenitor class.  She was an invaluable guide throughout the process, as well as a calm influence through occasionally turbulent tides.

John Hall and StudioACC were of an immeasurable amount of assistance in implementing the design and layout portion of the Progenitor. Without their patience and determination the journal would not be what it is!
