Welcome to Our New Editor: Jane Dabel
Nancy Quam-Wickham
The History Teacher
| WITH THE NOVEMBER 2005 ISSUE, I would like to welcome our new editor, Jane Dabel. I will stay on as coeditor until June 2006, when Professor Dabel will take over sole duties as editor. A graduate of the University of California, Berkeley (B.A.) and UCLA (Ph.D.), Professor Dabel teaches United States history at California State University, Long Beach. She is a specialist in African American and women's history. She is currently completing her manuscript, A Respectable Woman: African American Women in Nineteenth Century New York City, which explores black women's roles in the metropolis. As a long-time member of The History Teacher's editorial board and a history educator in both university and K-12 settings, she brings experience and great enthusiasm to this position. |

My nearly five years as editor of The History Teacher has been a richly rewarding experience. We have revised our editorial review processes, seen our subscriptions grow, have continued our tradition of supporting the National History Day organization and George Mason University's "Interviews with Exemplary Teachers" program, and have undertaken special issues on the Teaching American History program as well as special features on Internationalizing United States History and Teaching Environmental History. I would like to thank our contributors, referees, members of the journal's editorial board and the Society for History Education's National Advisory Board, and, most importantly, our readers for helping to make my experience as editor an enjoyable one. It is now time for me to move on: I have a number of writing projects to finish, am now chairperson of the history department at California State University, Long Beach, and have other academic responsibilities that demand my attention. Please join me in welcoming Professor Dabel to her new position. |
