Social Work Graduate Program Debuts in Redding
Collaborating with North State child welfare and mental health agencies, California State University, Chico’s master’s program in social work (MSW) is starting a three-year program this fall based in Redding.
The program is geared for professionals already employed in a social work agency who can work towards an MSW without leaving their jobs to attend school full-time.
Enrollment is full with 32 students signed up from 12 California counties as well as one student from Oregon. Jean Schuldberg, CSU, Chico MSW program director, said the program attracted twice as many applicants as there were places available for students.

University Film Series: C.R.A.Z.Y., hosted by Bill Campbell, History, Sept. 1
UNIVERSITY FILM SERIES
Tuesday Nights 7:30pm
Ayres 106 (Little Theatre)
$3 donation appreciated
898-4642
Sept. 1
C.R.A.Z.Y. (2005, Canada) 127 min. Directed by Jean-Marc Vallée. Introduced by Bill Campbell, History, and sponsored by the History Club (PhAThH)*
There are five boys in the Beaulieu family—Christian, Raymond, Antoine, Zachary and Yvan. But Zac (played by Emile Vallee and Marc-Andre Grondin) is the only one who’s gay. That’s why growing up in Montreal alongside his heterosexual brothers and his strict, emotionally distant father (Michel Cote ) proves especially challenging for the blossoming outsider, who finds solace in the music of Pink Floyd, the Rolling Stones,and David Bowie.
*Part of the Humanities Center’s year-long theme, “Memory, Nostalgia, Ruins.”
