columnist George Will vented his mistrust of social work
academia. Schools of social work and the National
Association of Social Workers Code of Ethics, he opined,
enforce a particular agenda at the expense of a pluralistic
student body. </P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.mlive.com/annarbor/stories/index.ssf?/base/news-0/119634904351650.xml&coll=2"><P> Right-wing pundits like Will are aghast that a socially
responsible president may enter in a year's time, and
these pundits are at their mud-throwing finest as they
attack anything remotely ideologically liberal. Through his
interpretation of the NASW Code of Ethics and scant
anecdotal evidence of a statistically insignificant fraction
of the social work student consortium, Will builds a straw
man out of hasty generalizations. His dialogue is littered
with scary terms alluding to gay rights and the
redistribution of wealth. This is "Reefer
Madness'' 2.0. </P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/E8C4BEC9-C983-4662-86C8-420C36BE995E/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content9.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
