PVF LINK FOR STUDENTS

Undoing Racism is a community collective of students, staff, and faculty in the School of Social Work dedicated to fighting white supremacy at individual, school, and structural levels. This workgroup was established in 2019 after the community took part in the People's Institute for Survival and Beyond Undoing Racism workshops and builds on their anti-racist community organizing model. No matter what role you play here at SSW, you are always welcome to come to Undoing Racism meetings. 

This event will be held virtually over Zoom!

The Office of Student Services and Enrollment Management and the Office of Global Activities are pleased to host incoming and second-year international students, Global Activities Scholars Program students, Master’s International Volunteer Program students, Coverdell Fellows, and Global Social Work Practice Pathway students and faculty for an informal dinner. This event will be a chance to get to know fellow students and members of the SSW community who have an interest in global social work.
