Note : There was also a letter of support for Jackie Gahagan written in the last six months, and not for the sport history project, but I can’t find anything about it among my e-mails. Also, we may have written other support letters, but this list is specifically about research. Note : June 2024. Two projects listed, but I may have them mixed up. Needs clarification..
