“This event was initiated by Former Dean Shadi Martin and continues with Dean Lillian Wichinsky.”
“March is National Social Work month so it is a great way to recognize so many in a special way.”
“Eight awards are given away called the Compass Rose Awards. They include social justice, competence, dignity, integrity, diversity, service, relationship and leadership.”
