Abstract
This article examines two cases of social work practice in higher education within the context of identifying a model of social practice for use in po stsecondary educational settings. The case studies provide insight into a m odel of social work practice that reflects both the traditional clinical mo del, which focuses on individual change, and the school-community-pupil rel ations model, which focuses on system change. The author also discusses imp lications for social work educators who see college/university counseling c enters as an arena for social work practice.
