Building on our highest-attended webinar from last year, Industry Insights returns, and we’re taking the campus involvement topic to the next level!
Last season, we partnered with then-Board Chair Dr. Alicia Bates to introduce the Case for Campus Activities framework. Now join Traci Steehler, director of student success and engagement at Suitable, on October 20 at noon ET as she welcomes NACA Board Chair Jason Meier, associate dean for student engagement at Harvard University. Together, they’ll explore the new frontier of student engagement: moving from proving the ROI of engagement to navigating the real-world operational realities that make it possible.
In this session, we’ll cover:
- Translating engagement to leadership-ready ROI. Connect day-to-day campus engagement to institutional priorities such as retention, persistence, and inclusive excellence, and pitch your impact effectively to senior leaders.
- Practical assessment of student belonging. Move beyond attendance tracking to frameworks that capture belonging in practice without adding to your administrative workload.
- The power of strategic sunsetting. Audit your offerings, retire low-impact programs, and free up valuable staff time for initiatives that matter most.
- Sustaining Student Affairs teams: Use actionable strategies to combat systemic burnout and foster cross-divisional support.
Plus, we’ll have a live Q&A with Traci and Jason. We hope you’ll join this timely conversation. Registration is free, and we'll send a recording to everyone who signs up.
