Why do our faculty choose to support social work? Watch to find out!

Because they see the dedication, potential and passion our students bring to the profession every day. Supporting social work means investing in students who will go on to strengthen communities, advocate for others and create legendary change.

Help us support the future of social work through the 1965 Legacy Scholarship Campaign. Every gift helps provide scholarships for students pursuing a social work education.

Give now through Oct. 10th!

For distance learning student Shana Smith, the DC Fly-In was about more than traveling to Washington, D.C. It brought her closer to professors and classmates she had previously known through a computer screen.

After attending the Fly-In twice, Shana has experienced firsthand what it means to take what you learn in the classroom and put it into practice, while using your voice to speak up for what matters.

Her advice? “Don’t miss the opportunity, you won’t regret it.”

Applications for the 2027 DC Fly-In are open through Wednesday, Sept. 23. Don’t miss your chance to make your voice heard.

From the steps of the U.S. Capitol to meetings with legislators, the DC Fly-In gives students a front-row seat to policy in action.

Students have the opportunity to explore the legislative process, connect with social work leaders, advocate for communities, and discover how their voices can help shape meaningful change.

Your classroom can take you all the way to Washington, D.C. 🇺🇸

Applications for the 11th Annual DC Fly-In are open through September 23rd!

We kicked off the semester the best way we know how: together! ❤️

Our BSW Welcome Back Event brought students, faculty and staff together for pizza, great conversations, photos with BIG AL and a chance to learn more about the many opportunities in social work.

From reconnecting with friends to meeting new peers and discovering what’s ahead, it was a great way to welcome our BSW students back to Little Hall and start the semester strong!

Here’s to a semester full of learning, connection and Legendary Change. Roll Tide! ❤️

Why do our School of Social Work Community Advisory Board members choose to support social work?

Your support helps make sure the next generation of social workers has the resources they need to succeed.
