ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
I wish to express my heartfelt and long overdue thanks to a number of organizations and individuals who have all contributed in some way to this book's creation. I began my research several years ago for a doctoral dissertation; the project was supported in large part by the generosity of the Claremont Graduate School (now Claremont Graduate University) through a Claremont Graduate School Fellowship and a Linhardt Dissertation Fellowship. At that time I received a tremendous amount of support and constructive criticism from the members of my dissertation committee: Robert Dawidoff, Malcolm Douglass, and Mary Poplin, all of the Claremont Graduate School; and Helena Wall of Pomona College. This committee provided me with a great deal of latitude and flexibility in refining the topic to suit my own interests and discoveries. During the course of the research I relied heavily on the tireless patience and legwork of the staff of the Government Documents Department at the Boston Public Library. Similarly, the staffs at the Gutman Library of Harvard University and the Fingold Library at the Massachusetts State House were most helpful in directing me to possible sources. Particular thanks go to the library staff in the office of the Boston School Committee, who made me feel most welcome during several weeks of research there. The Honnold Library of the Claremont Colleges also provided excellent resources and opportunities for research, writing, and reflection. More recently, Aaron Schmidt of the Print Department of the Boston Public Library has generously assisted in the selection of the photographs included in the book.
Over the past two and one-half years I have worked closely with Gallaudet University Press. John Vickrey Van Cleve and anonymous reviewers offered constructive and insightful critique on earlier drafts. Special thanks goes to Ivey Pittle Wallace, whose expertise and professionalism not only made this a much better book but also rendered its preparation a delight. I have also appreciated the counsel and support of my colleagues at the Indiana University School of Education, especially Ed McClellan, Barbara Wilcox, Khaula Murtadha- Watts, Keith Morran, and Michael Cohen. Each in her or his own way has contributed directly to making the process of writing and revising easier and more productive. I also wish to thank
