Social Work Student Association

The Social Work Student Association (SWSA) is an information sharing, networking, student support and social club. SWSA provides a support group and networking opportunities for social work students, and is a formal link between social work students and academic staff. SWSA is represented by a committee of current social work students who volunteer their time and effort to ensure social work students' issues, concerns and perspectives are heard.

Membership is $5.00, and if you are a Guild member there is a club registration voucher (worth $5.00) in your Guild Diary. All you have to do is fill in your particulars behind the voucher and submit it to us or drop it into SWSA pigeon-box (3E) located on top of the drop files in building 208 (Level 4).

If you have any questions, issues, comments or suggestions or are interested in volunteering some of your time, please contact SWSA, via e-mail: curtinswsa@gmail.com.

The 2010 SWSA Committee Members are:

President: Lauren Cayoun
Vice President: Kylie Sandford
Secretary: John Marshall
Treasurer: Terri Aldridge
