Note from the Editors
Pete Kratzke and Jeri R. Kraver
Friends of The CEA Critic:
In the issue before you, you will note that we have made some changes in our design. With the help of our colleagues at Johns Hopkins University Press (a special nod to Henry Richards and Carol Hamblen), we are sporting a new logo, a new cover design, and new headers to our essays. Our intention in updating our look is two-fold. First, we wish to signal the transfer of Executive Editorship from Jeri Kraver, who will become Managing Editor, to Peter Kratzke, who slides seamlessly into his new role. Second, and more importantly, we look to celebrate the long history of The CEA Critic (2024 marks our 86th year in print) by incorporating a traditional Courier-looking font for essay headings (followed by a horizontal line) even while those essays reflect the ever-changing nature of our profession.
As we move into a new year, we are excited to see what lies ahead. Whatever 2024 brings, The CEA Critic will be there to take notes!
