Grunspan who generously shared raw data to test the SNA code he developed and published as a primer, Paola Barriga who provided excellent support in R programming for data visualization, Austin Lannen who helped extracting and organizing survey data for SNA, and Kim Brown who helped us with the logistics of conducting our research experiment in the BIOL 1108L laboratory classroom.
