V. PROGRAM STRUCTURE
The Collaborative MSW Program is jointly administered by all graduate faculty of the UW
Green Bay Social Work Professional Program and the UW Oshkosh Social Work Program. It is
a single program developed and administered by this joint faculty. While half the students in the
program have Green Bay as their home campus and half have Oshkosh as a home campus, there
is a single student group, and all students take classes together at one location.
Program Committees
The Collaborative MSW Program is governed by the following committees:
Oversight Committee: This committee is charged with providing oversight for all matters
affecting the Program, including structure, curriculum, admissions, recruitment and retention,
and evaluation. This committee makes recommendations to the full faculty regarding any
changes in policy and major changes in Program practices.
Faculty Committee: This is the governing committee for the program, charged with full
oversight of all matters affecting structure, curriculum, admissions, recruitment and retention,
and evaluation. Two student representatives serve on this committee.
Admissions Committee: This committee is responsible for developing admissions materials,
recommending changes in admissions policies, developing admissions statistics, and making
admissions decisions.
Field Committee: This committee is responsible for developing field procedures, making
recommendations regarding changes in field policies, and providing consultation to the MSW
Field Coordinator
Program Evaluation and Continuous Improvement Committee: This committee is responsible for
developing the Program’s evaluation plan, insuring that it is implemented, and preparing
materials for faculty review and program revision.
Community Advisory Committee: This committee is drawn from community agency colleagues
who serve in an advisory capacity in the MSW program. Most, if not all, are familiar with the
BSW program on each campus because they have provided field placements for students in that
program and have served the programs in other advisory capacities. The MSW Community
Advisory Committee membership is reflective of the diversity -- geographic and practice -- of
the practice community in the area served by the Program. Current community members of this
committee are:
Deb Cudworth (Chair), Office of the Public Defender
Cheryl Cain, Winnebago County Human Services
Leroy Dissing, Green Lake County Human Services
Michelle Frechette, Menominee Indian School District
