'I told Julia how genuinely bereft I was going to feel without her in the Writing Center,' said Professor of Classics David Kubiak, 'Whatever small success I might have had over the years in improving student writing has been due equally to her—her superb competence and her unfailing sense of cooperation on behalf of students.'

'I think of Julia as almost an adjunct of the counseling center,' Counseling Center Director Kevin Swaim said. 'Everybody we referred to her came back with this belief that they’d found one of the jewels that was going to make them successful and decrease their anxiety. She probably relieved more symptoms than we ever did.'

'When I was a freshman I struggled my first semester and ended up with a 2.8 GPA,' said senior Ben Cook. After working with Rosenberg, his next semester was a 4.0. 'And as of last semester it was a 3.66, so I just want you to know you really help students.'
