Student Affairs Now

In this episode of Student Affairs NOW, host Keith Edwards interviews Betsy Cracco, Stephane Belisle, and Elliot Felix about the often-overlooked impact of the built environment on student learning and well-being. They dive into shifting away from "atomized" private spaces toward intentional "third spaces" that foster community, the role of residence hall design in combating the student loneliness pandemic, and practical ways to make support services more visible and normalized through spatial "nudges" as Elliot shares the holistic approach to student success from the "Connected College."
