A special thanks to David Anderson (University of Tennessee) who provided housing to George Milner while collecting the 2009-2010 preliminary data used as a pilot study for the NIJ grant. The research team would also like to thank the staff and students who facilitated day-to-day operations at these collections. Without their help and good humor, this work would not have been possible.
