Tessa Evans-Campbell Selected for PhD Mentor Award

Associate Professor Tessa Evans-Campbell, Director of the UW School of Social Work’s MSW Program and Associate Director of IWRI, was selected as the recipient of the prestigious UW School of Social Work’s “Lewayne D. Gilchrist PhD Mentor Award.” This award recognizes a SSW faculty member who has performed outstandingly in mentoring doctoral students as they pursue their degrees. As one doctoral student wrote in a nomination letter, “I think I speak for other students as well as myself when I say that she reminds me of why I am pursuing a PhD and what we can do for our communities in our roles in academia.” Congratulations, Tessa! Your dedication to fostering young, new professionals makes this a better school and a better society.
