Abstract
Termination, when it is taught, is usually relegated to a segment of the social work curriculum concerned with practice skills. Yet losses, separations, and terminations are a recurring theme in the lives of individuals. This article presents ideas for integrating concepts relating to termination throughout the social work curriculum. The impact of loss on human behavior, separation as the unappreciated consequence of many social policies, and termination as a topic for broad-based research are all areas of potential investigation for the social work educator.
