Joining Knowledge, Love and ESL: Through a partnership with Reading School District, Dr. Lawrick works to certify educators to teach English as a second language (ESL). 

Advancing opportunities: Then director of Alvernia’s Office for Multilingual Student Success, Dr. Lawrick mentored Sister Digna Chuwa, M.Ed. '03 and Ph.D. '22, whom she called an "ethical leader with moral courage." Their collaboration resulted in a research study that provided invaluable insight into understanding the persistence of gender inequality in higher education institutions. Conducted at  the University of Dar es Salaam,  the best-ranked university in Tanzania, Dr. Chuwa's dissertation research brought to light the female faculty leaders' perspective on this social issue.
