Abstract

While past research points to various benefits of living on campus, it is important for student affairs professionals to reflect on and adapt to contemporary changes in on-campus living. This session reviews findings from a set of questions that were developed in collaboration with ACUHO-I and appended to the National Survey of Student Engagement. Findings include the relationship between living environments (facilities, programs, staff, safety, etc.) with engagement and perceived gains in learning and development. The session encourages discussion on how these findings can inform practice.
