A woman of letters

Hewlett's Jessica Rosen, a recent Lynbrook High School graduate and a freshman at Washington University in St. Louis, was awarded a Howard Nemerov Writing Scholarship from the school. This scholarship is awarded to incoming freshmen in the College of Arts & Sciences who demonstrated exceptional writing talent. The $3,000 award is renewable for four years.

Nemerov Scholars participate in a series of educational experiences designed to meet the needs and interests of writers, including enrollment in the Howard Nemerov Writing Seminar, submission of their work to campus publications, participation in writing-intensive group activities and the earning of a minor in English writing.
