Hi! My name is Austin (pronouns they/he), and I’m your professor for Community Organizing Research (SSW 751 section 16). I’m a pretty big research geek and believe that social workers should be trained in critical methodologies – inclusive of qualitative and quantitative methods – to confront interlocking systems of injustice. I’m really looking forward to spending this semester with you and look forward to our many thought provoking conversations.
