Description

Daniel Jacobson López and co-authors ask social work faculty whether their schools need explicit policies protecting LGBTQIA colleagues. Queer faculty report discrimination in classrooms and departments, from cooler collaboration to slower promotion. Social work programs, which teach inclusion as a value, had barely been studied from inside. Their 2024 study surveys faculty reached through the national directors of bachelor's and master's programs.

One hundred ninety-three faculty answered. Modeling linked stronger support for inclusive policies with lower measured phobia, among other paths. The findings give deans a faculty-side baseline: what colleagues believe, not just what handbooks say. Programs preaching equity can check whether their own halls practice it.
