This presentation was on: Encouraging students to identify or develop purpose through activities beyond coursework provides student affairs professionals with another avenue to cultivate student success. Content in this presentation will center around findings from a cross-university mixed methods study on “purposeful engagement,” engagement that aligns with a student’s self-defined purpose. This includes ways to identify purposeful engagement in extra- and co-curricular contexts as well as the impacts of that engagement on students (e.g., positive well-being).
