Student-Run Book Club

Hello Everyone!

I’m super excited about starting this book club for the summer, and thank you to everyone who responded to the first poll! From the looks of it, we will be meeting weekly on Thursday evenings, from 7-8. I also want to suggest that from 6-7  anyone who wants to hang out, catch up on the reading, etc can meet at the designated location early!

For the first meeting, next Thursday 5/12, I figured we could have our first meeting Wade Lagoon by the art museum, since campus is a fairly central location, and we can pick other parks to meet at from there!
I want our book decision to be as collaboratively decided as possible, so based on the first poll everyone seemed interested in reading a professional book, or a piece of fiction that is relevant to our work as social workers. So if everyone could please email me 1 book option for us to read, and I’ll turn that into a poll! (I also think depending on the length of the book, we’ll have time for at least 2-3 books this summer!) 

Here are some ideas for summer reads

Louis Weigele

Introducing our Professor of the Month: Louis Weigele, LISW-S, BCD!

"I have a clinical practice in Rocky River and live in the West Park neighborhood of Cleveland with my wife Rose, who is the co-owner of Abattoir Gallery in the Clark Fulton area. I find teaching very valuable for me as I am challenged to consider clinical and social topics that students bring to class which help evolve my understanding of the profession of social work and that of myself as a person. " -Louis Weigele, LISW-S, BCD

Professor Weigele was nominated because, "He does his best to make all students comfortable, and creates a common understanding of our class curriculum. Professor Weigele teaches SASS 547, and works to emphasize that clients and communities we will be working with are people first, and the diagnoses that we are discussing are secondary to the person. Also, their genuine care for his students has been so appreciated this semester."
Thank you to Professor Weigele for being such a strong support to our students!
