Social Work Club is involved in many organizations on campus and in the community. We attempt to support campus and community activities through volunteer work and/or monetary donations. We work on a fundraiser once a semester and do a service project at least once a semester. Our juniors and seniors try to be mentors for the freshmen and sophomores, answering questions they might have about junior symposium, senior thesis, double majoring, independent studies, etc.
The organization is open to everyone on campus regardless of their major, however, voting rights are reserved for declared social work majors.
