Colleges and universities desire to help mold well-rounded students who are academically motivated and are active participants in the world around them. Although the time spent in the classroom is crucial to a student’s development, the participation in extracurricular activities is just as imperative. It has been found in countless studies that participating in extracurricular activities of any kind positively affects student learning and development. Focus studies and surveys were given to IWU students in order to assess student involvement.
