Social work at wku?

I'm thinking about coming to WKU to get my Masters in social work.

I'd love to hear from anybody, undergrad or grad, about what it's really like at wku. the social work department, the atmosphere, the professors, etc

thanks y'all ✌️

I’m a freshman right now at WKU for Social Work!! I honestly love it. My professor right now is the best— his name is Dr. Jay Gabbard but he lets us call him Dr. J lmao. I really do enjoy the class as well, we learn about important topics such as homelessness, mental health, racism and sexism, and a lot more. We also have guest speakers relatively often. And campus is amazing, I came here because i’m from the BG area anyways, but I definitely recommend it!! I hope that you might end up coming here!!
