Julietta Wolf-Foster Outstanding Consultant Award
The Julietta Wolf-Foster Outstanding Writing Consultant Award recognizes the consultant who most captures Julietta's exceptional qualities as a writing educator.
Julietta was a senior consultant in the writing center and one of the first and longest-standing members of our community. Julietta approached every situation with kindness, tremendous wisdom, deep understanding of all aspects of writing, a special ability to meet the needs of a wide range of students, and a gentleness that at once conveyed “I can help” and “let’s get to work.” She was the quintessential go-to tutor.
We miss her deeply, but know that this award holds up her ongoing presence and spirit in the writing program.
2025 Winners - Gabby Tapia and Caroline Warrick-Schkolnik
This year we received twenty-seven nominations for the 2025 Julietta Wolf-Foster Outstanding Writing Consultant Award. The nominations speak to the tremendous dedication and success of our staff of writing consultants. All the nominees were highly deserving, but, based on the nominations from student writers, there were two candidates who stood out: Gabby Tapia and Caroline Warrick-Schkolnik. The numerous nominations each of them received speak to their knowledge, insightful guidance, patience, and kindness. Much like Julietta was, they are incredibly dedicated tutors who do all they can to help writers meet their goals. We hope you’ll all join us in congratulating Gabby and Caroline. We are thrilled to be able to recognize their outstanding work with this award!
