Student representatives
Between October and April all student representatives across the country teleconference with a faculty member to share ideas and to discuss issues pertaining to the student body. This is an excellent way to meet other students studying on-campus and by distance education, to have input in the curriculum and to learn, first hand, what is happening in the program. Student representatives are encouraged to represent the needs of their constituents and to provide feedback and input to the School of Social Work.
The following terms of reference were developed by the initial group of representatives:
- To reach out to new students in the program
- To facilitate communication between students
- To raise the School of Social Work's awareness regarding issues facing distance education and on campus learners
- To provide input/feedback to the School on issues relating to curriculum development, policy, and school governance
- To lobby senior University administration around issues relating to distance education as needed
If you are interested in becoming a BSW student representative or require additional information, please contact:
