Abstract

Colleges and universities have an interest in student involvement and campus engagement opportunities; hence, many institutions have included such activities into their mission statements. Studies have shown that students who are more involved in extra-curricular activities at their institutions experience a wealth of benefits including personal development, increased learning and higher rates of retention (Arboleda, Wang, Shelley & Whalen, 2003).
