Faculty In the News
A survey of all employees in fall 2022 on workplace behaviors at Rutgers has prompted a series of recommendations and actions to make the university a better, more responsive, and more respectful place to work and learn. Led by Rutgers Professor Sarah McMahon and her research team at the Center for Research on Ending Violence at the School of Social Work, and sponsored by the Office of the Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs, the Academic and Workplace Behaviors and Environment Survey (AWBES) has resulted in three key goals: to strengthen coordination of university prevention and response to harassment and incivility, increase and enhance resources and services, and promote a culture of respect.
Rutgers School of Social Work will be represented at the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE)'s 69th Annual Program Meeting from October 24-27, 2024 by a number of presentations being hosted by our faculty, postdocs, Ph.D. students, lecturers, alumni, and staff.
