A Note of Gratitude


In this period of significant financial challenges to New England Review, many people have come forward to offer their strong support. All of us at NER would like to express our sincere thanks to the friends who have sustained us—authors, subscribers, and general readers—and we want especially to indicate our deep indebtedness to the numerous donors who over the course of the past year and a half have made it possible for us to come closer to our goal of meeting the expenses necessary to produce a magazine that has been consistently recognized as one of the most distinguished in the nation. Middlebury College’s senior administration has sought funds from potential donors and has enabled the Office of College Advancement to assist us in our own fundraising efforts, and we have also secured the support of the National Endowment for the Arts in the form of a grant to be used next year to spread the word about our publication and increase our base of subscribers. At this point, in keeping with our promise, we present the names of the financial donors whose contributions have been processed by the close of 2010. Their gifts have helped to insure the continuing publication of NER, and we are immensely grateful for the generosity and confidence that they have demonstrated.
