Defining and Addressing Professional Burnout in Campus Activities
De Sawal, Danielle M.; Peck, Adam; Rosch, David M.
Journal of Campus Activities Practice and Scholarship, v4 n2 p5-13 2022
Professional burnout is a growing concern in campus activities units. We have collected several anecdotal reflections from student affairs professionals, which we share to illustrate how the dimensions of exhaustion, cynicism, and a lack of self-efficacy can show up in our daily work. We will provide suggestions reexamining organization structures and professional practices to combat feelings of burnout and establish new and innovative career pathways for campus activities professionals.
