Julia Meloy Goldsby returned saying that the program had changed her life, "I’m paying tribute to Eleanor Roosevelt and her ideals by making my school a more nurturing environment for girls. I would encourage every teenage girl to apply to the GLW - it was the best experience of my life.” - Julia Meloy Goldsby, daughter of Robin Goldsby (AIWC Cologne)
