This article discusses the encroachment of neoliberal ideology on social work education, by emphasizing the experiences of two young academics in dealing with this impact at the level of teaching, research and writing. The central argument is that the basic values of our profession are threatened if as academics we remain inattentive to the impacts of this ideology on social work education.
