Abstract
High Impact Practices (HIPs) have been identified as educational practices that benefit undergraduate students, especially those from traditionally underserved demographics. These practices can contribute to the success of all students. While not always recognized as a HIP, student employment has many of the characteristics of a HIP including expectations for performance, time and effort around learning, interaction and collaboration with others, feedback, and demonstration of competence among others. Many campuses are starting to emphasize student employment as a HIP and see it as one of the ways that we retain students and help them succeed.
In this presentation, I will give a quick overview of HIPs and talk about how student employment in the library can meet the characteristics of HIPs. By implementing these practices into your student employment in the library you can help your students succeed in their educational pursuits.
