Should Convicted Felons Be Denied Admission to a Social Work Education Program?
Magen, Randy H.; Emerman, Janet; Scott, Nettie; Zeiger, Spencer
Journal of Social Work Education, v36 n3 p401-13 Fall 2000
Two articles and rebuttals provide contrasting views on whether convicted felons should automatically be denied admission to a social work education program. One view focuses on the importance of the gatekeeping role in the profession whereas the other emphasizes the special understandings that such an individual, if truly reformed, can offer the profession.
