Making Waves<br />
Volume 9, 2010<br />
By Christi M Navarro, Editor<br />
Most <strong>of</strong> the essays found in Volume 9 <strong>of</strong> Making<br />
Waves are from the 9 th Annual Women’s <strong>Studies</strong><br />
Student Conference, “Cleaning Up the Down<br />
Economy: Women, Gender, & the Global<br />
Economy.”<br />
I would like to thank this year’s Associate<br />
Editor, Maria Murriel, for her work and<br />
dedication to this issue <strong>of</strong> Making Waves. Maria<br />
volunteered her time during Summer 2010 as<br />
her work was not part <strong>of</strong> a for‐credit internship<br />
or independent study. Please be sure to read<br />
Maria’s special interview with Women’s<br />
