A very special thank you goes to Dr. Ann Carmichael of the Department of History here on the Bloomington campus. Dr. Carmichael is unique among medical historians in that she holds both an MD degree and a PhD. She was a wonderful resource as well as a source of inspiration during the planning phase of this course. I hesitate to think what M470 would be like had it not been for Dr. Carmichael's input. 
Celestina Wroth, Indiana University history librarian,  was immensely helpful in tracking down the online historical resources used in this course. Thanks to her efforts, it's possible for students to review copies of original documents created by by those who were on the scene during the early days of colonization of the New World.
Dr. Tom Hrisomalos, an infectious disease specialist with Internal Medicine Associates, is a gifted and creative faculty member of the Indiana University School of Medicine. He has been very supportive, a great resource and he has even contributed two of the PowerPoint tutorials (smallpox and influenza). Thank you Tom!
