ACKNOWLEDGMENTS As with any creative endeavor, there is an extraordinary amount of time and effort that is dedicated to its existence. This issue would not have been possible without the support and guidance from Ken Cormier and Lila Carney. Your enthusiasm and dedication to Montage is outstanding and we could not have done this without you. Thank you. I would like to extend this message to the entire English Department for providing us a space to grow and experiment with every weird idea that we could possibly imagine. Plus you feed us every once in a while and those cookies really do make a difference. Thank you to TYCO printing for allowing us to print such a thing in the first place. Your flexibility and patience throughout the process is invaluable to this endeavor. Lastly, I would like to thank my incredible editors Anthony DiMartino, Nicole Maresca, Kristen Riello, and Jessica Pereira. You guys have entertained my imagination and weird random noises since day one. So this is all your fault. Your love of creative writing and your enthusiasm was inspiring. I could not have done this without you. Until next time, Clare Michalak
