Abstract
Despite a shrinking job market and the continuing controversy over the role of the baccalaureate social worker in the professional hierarchy, there has been a dramatic increase in the number of workers entering practice or graduate education with the bachelor of social work degree. This article reports a survey of the postbaccalaureate employment and educational experiences of the 1976 through 1979 graduates of twenty-one BSW programs in Pennsylvania. Findings focus on the nature, auspice, and job satisfaction of BSWs and on comparisons between experiences of BSWs and MSWs.
