In 1996, SMSU’s Social Work Program graduated its first class under full accreditation. While social work education existed before then, 1996 marked a major milestone in our commitment to excellence. Join us during Homecoming 2026 (October 2-4, 2026) for activities celebrating all our alumni!  Also, follow events on Instagram and Facebook, or the SMSU Alumni Association on Facebook. More information and details about events will be announced in the fall of 2026.
