This manuscript explores the experiences of a group of female macro social work academics using the collective biography process (Davies and Gannon, 2006). The narrative includes remembrances that the authors believe shaped who we are as macro social work academics and the work that we do. The shared stories are presented in a chronological manner and include analysis of the themes we identified as being important to the development of each academic within the group. Themes emerged pointing to a common understanding of the experiences and perhaps a view of the world. This suggested something unique in the development and socialization of women who become macro social work academics. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Potential solutions to give social workers improved ethical guidance are considered for use in a law clinic setting. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
