With more than 750 student employees, including over 500 student leaders and volunteers, Student Affairs knows that working on campus is more than just a job—it’s an opportunity for growth, connection, and real-world learning. Through its SELFIE (Student Employee, Leader, Fellow, and Intern Engagement) program, Student Affairs is reimagining student employment by focusing on what students need to thrive—both in their current roles and in their future careers.
Balancing academic priorities with mental health and a healthy lifestyle is essential for student success. Recognizing this critical need, Student Affairs has curated the EmpowerEd Health Literacy course through Canvas, which is designed to help students take charge of their health and well-being throughout college and beyond.
Getting involved on campus teaches students skills such as leadership, resilience, compassion, and the ability to handle complex challenges, both professionally and personally. It also serves as a pathway to grow, develop, and shape your identity — leading you to discover your passions, people, and purpose.
Student Affairs' Revitalizing Engagement and Belonging strategic initiative aims to create a campus where every student feels connected and engaged. A key component of this effort is the development pillar events—large-scale, thoughtfully curated experiences that shape the college journey. To assess their impact consistently, Student Affairs is using Campus Connect to track attendance and gather feedback, and gain real-time insights.
At the University of Utah, students have endless opportunities to connect, learn, and thrive through campus events. However, with so many options, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed or lost in the crowd. To simplify and enhance the student experience, Student Affairs is excited to introduce pillar events—large-scale, thoughtfully curated events designed to serve as cornerstones of the college experience.
