Every ship has a builder.
This Great Voyages web site does as well. The master of this web site wishes to heartily thank the builders. This Great Voyages web site project began in June 1995 under the auspices of a grant from Joy Hughes , the Vice Provost for Information Services at Oregon State University. It was created by a team of wonderful people. Jon Dorbolo, Research Assistant Professor in Philosophy , offered an inspirational model and much good advice before, during and after a series of summer seminars about the design and use of web sites which were organized by Norma Nielson and funded by the Vice Provost for Information Services.
