"I have witnessed, firsthand, the power of your advocacy and activism, and I am inspired when I see you bring to life the values and ethics of social work. The choices you make and the actions you engage in have real impact in the world. As I have watched the class of 2024 over the past two years, I have seen, time and time again, your commitment to a better society."

Since October of 2022, X (formerly Twitter) has become increasingly toxic and unsafe for marginalized communities and people with diverse identities. Harmful hosted content and the ways X now conducts its business sharply conflict with the values of our College and the ethics of our profession. Therefore, as intentional activism, the College of Social Work’s official profile (@USocialWork) will cease activity on X for the foreseeable future.
