Abstract
My purpose in this research was to understand how COVID-19 impacted undergraduate students’ sense of belonging at the University of San Diego. In doing so, I gained insight into how residential advisors (RAs) have been and are currently impacted by a sense of belonging at the University of San Diego. This research process consisted of three cycles. This research asked participants to describe how COVID-19 affected whether they found a sense of belonging and what steps they have taken to create a sense of belonging within their student leadership roles. All cycles of this research allowed participants to meet each other and have an open discussion to share their University of San Diego experiences. At the end of this research, I provided data-driven recommendations to inform student services funding allocations to promote social interaction for students impacted by COVID-19.
