Caroline Cutler Metcalf Leadership Award
This award is named for Caroline Cutler Metcalf, one of a handful of figures to make a truly historic impact on the Wheaton community. Hired in 1850, she provided superior leadership as the principal of Wheaton Seminary for 26 years, until 1876. An innovator in education, Metcalf hired a full-time physical educator to strengthen the seminary's conviction that physical activity should be a part of a woman's daily routine.
