2006-2007 REWIND

Social Work Week, March 19-23, 2007
The campus became aware of social work and myths surrounding the profession were corrected through a publicity campaign.  A pizza party, graduate information session and social took place during the week to bring the majors together for some fun, prizes and free stuff!  Phi Alpha Inductions were held and new SSWA officers were selected for 2007-2008.  All in all, it was a great time for everyone!

Random Acts of Kindness Week, February 2007
The campus received goodies, information and examples of Random Acts of Kindness.  Posters, emails and other awareness materials were distributed and random kindness acts were encouraged!

Halloween Social Work Program Promotion
Trying to promote the social work program on campus, we invited the campus to experience tricks and treats on the 3rd floor of Ledford.  We decorated and provided some goodies.  As a result, Dr. Bishop received some inquiries from  potential new majors!  Good job!  - view pictures -
