Honors, Awards, and Grants
2020 APF Charles L. Brewer Distinguished Teaching of Psychology Award
Citation: "Respect for diversity, human rights, ethics, critical thinking, and depth of learning are primary to Linda M. Woolf's philosophy of teaching. For 30 years, Linda has encouraged fellow teachers to integrate issues of social justice and global concerns into their courses-teaching to make a difference. Nationally, Linda is a tireless advocate for justice and human rights, and locally, she is a sought-after educator who comes to work each day excited about the classroom. Linda's vision, leadership, and advocacy have expanded psychology to make our discipline more globally relevant to students, researchers, teachers, and mental health professionals throughout the world."
2014 APA Presidential Citation
"For educating current and future generations about human rights through her scholarly teaching and writing, and for assisting APA in drafting and adopting policy resolutions that prohibit human rights abuses and protect the welfare of individuals in U.S. custody, most notably the comprehensive 2013 policy that reconciled seven earlier APA policies."
