The Association of Baccalaureate Social Work Program Directors (BPD), which presented its fifteenth annual conference in Philadelphia in October 1997, has a long history, extending long before the first conference, held at a convent in Nazareth, Kentucky, in 1983. The organization was formed in the mid-1970s in order to represent the interests and enhance recognition of undergraduate social work education and practice. As undergraduate programs grew in number and influence, BPD grew as well and came to be recognized as the voice of undergraduate education within the social work profession. The following history places the formation of BPD in the context of earlier efforts to speak for undergraduate education and highlights the association's flexibility of structure, emphasis on interaction with other organizations, and diversity in leadership and membership.1

Admission to a BSW program is a significant stage of professional development for social work students. Thus, the purpose of this study is to learn how social work students experienced selective admission in an undergraduate program and the roles of faculty to support students during the admission process. I conducted focus groups and interviews with 24 students and alumni for a stakeholder analysis of admission to a baccalaureate social work program. Students described three types of personal responses to BSW admission: (a) stress and anxiety, (b) deepened commitment to the social work profession, and (c) a strong sense of accomplishment. In addition, students' expectations of faculty during the admission process were (a) advising students, (b) mentoring students, (c) connecting students to the social work program, and (d) gatekeeping for the profession. Findings may guide social work educators as they carry out admission practices and incorporate strategies to meet students' needs.

Service learning is a pedagogical method to bridge classroom and community experiences for students. Although social work education has historically emphasized this connection through internship experiences, service learning can fill a different function within the curriculum. This article proposes a service learning experience to assist graduate students with the transition into their foundation field placement. Beneficial outcomes of using service learning as an educational bridge are discussed for students, faculty, and the social work program.
