The presenter will share an innovative model that empowers student experience coordinators to create self-sustaining, inclusive, and equitable activities across five key pillars: Arts and Culture, Athletics, Student Groups, Esports, and Social Impact. Serving over 60,000 students in a multicampus university, this model has tripled the student affairs budget, significantly boosting engagement and improving retention rates. Attendees will learn how to apply this adaptable and data-driven approach to maximize impact in their own institutions. 

Learning Outcomes 

1. Apply a data-driven decision-making tool to optimize student affairs budgets, ensuring equitable and sustainable program delivery across diverse campuses 

2. Observe a live demonstration of the decision-making tool and receive a customizable template, equipping them to implement and adapt the model within their own university settings 

3. Synthesize strategies from the five-pillar model to create inclusive and engaging student activities, increasing retention and student satisfaction
