Dr. Megan Moore, has been selected as the School of Social Work’s inaugural Sidney Miller Endowed Assistant Professor in Direct Practice!  Megan will assume this honorary position in spring quarter, pending approval of the UW Board of Regents. Say Dean Eddie Uehara: "This prestigious professorship was made possible by David and Peter Miller, sons of the late Sidney Miller, who was one of the School’s most gifted and beloved professors of direct practice during the 1970s and 1980s. Megan was selected for this position because of her expertise in social work direct practice; her cutting-edge interdisciplinary research, broadly focused on social work intervention development; her excellence in teaching and mentoring; and for the many contributions she makes to the School and the profession.  Megan is an exquisite fit with the spirit and criteria associated with this award—a perfect inaugural holder of this professorship!"
