Ethics in Practice (SOWK 430)

Term: 2022-2023 School Year Fall Semester

Faculty

Mr. Jacob R Campbell PhD

I value collaborating and working on problems in person. I go between several sites (e.g., Heritage at Toppenish/Kennewick campuses, Columbia Basin College Campus, and my home office). I adapt my location and schedule to meet the needs of a given week, so my schedule does vary depending on the needs for that week. The following is my general plan for locations:

  • Tuesdays and Saturdays (when we have MSW classes) in Toppenish
  • Wednesdays and Thursdays in Kennewick

I schedule specific times for collaboration with students or other professionals every week, with an open office hour at my two main sites. These times are subject to change, so please check my NOW page for my schedule this week and today. Weekly drop-in sessions are available via Zoom or in-person.
