The Educational Policy Committee is a subset of faculty, and it oversees the Master of Social Work curriculum content, making recommendations to the larger faculty, and assessing content as part of required competencies from the Council on Social Work Education.
Current Master of Social Work candidates who have course-related questions about readings, videos, websites, materials, tests, or assignments should connect with their professor first and in advance of due dates to allow for response and follow up questions. With regards to attendance, grades, code of conduct, and professional and academic standards, please see the Student Rights and Responsibilities Handbook.
Any student who has a concern or recommendation regarding course content is welcome to connect with their professor, EPC Student Representative(s), the Sequence Chair for the course, and/or the EPC Chair. Information on the individuals who hold these positions is included below. Please use the Tulane directory to find their email addresses.
Faculty members with course content questions, concerns, or recommendations should work directly with the Sequence Chair for their course.
Those with recommendations on institutional change as it relates to social, economic, racial, environmental, and disability justice can convey that to TSSW’s Empowering Change Task Force.
If you experience or witness individual racism, discrimination, threats of violence, violence, or accessibility, health, or safety issues, please report it to tulane.edu/concerns so that it can be dealt with swiftly.
For courses and electives not part of these sequences, the first point of contact is the professor.
