The Undergraduate Student Social Work Association (SSWA) is devoted to creating a positive educational and social atmosphere for social work students.  The extracurricular activities enhance students' professional development as social workers.  SSWA meets on a monthly basis, and announcements about scheduled meetings are made in social work classes.  Membership dues are $10 per academic year, and membership is open to all declared social work majors and minors.  An SSWA membership allows participation in all SSWA sponsored activities and committees and provides opportunities:

• to practice leadership skills by becoming an officer in the organization.
  

• to increase awareness of social and ethical issues while engaging in a hands-on experience in solving problems in today's society.
  

• to serve on departmental committees as a student representative.
