I was denied admission to the MSW Program due to my background. Although I have made significant changes in my life, the destructive lifestyle I once led still comes back to haunt me. I find it ironic the program uses the terms equal opportunity, oppression and social justice in their mission statement yet blatantly discriminated against me. It is what it is but I can say without a doubt the movement to equal the playing field for all will never advance with people like the staff at Stan State determining who is and who is not afforded the opportunity to pursue higher education. Social justice is about equal opportunity for all regardless of race, sexual orientation, disability, etc. If we are to advance as a society there needs to be people in position that genuinely believe in the mission statement. Politics and personal agendas will continue to be the downfall of society. The fire burns deep when the passion is real. The plan may have to change but the goal remains the same.....

I also applied for the MSW program. I have approximately 4 years of social services experience. I talked with Barbara Monday and she stated letters went out late last week and Monday-Tuesday this week. An old coworker of mine received a call Monday from the Social Work Department requesting an interview with her regarding the program. Anyone else hear anything yet?
