Trends: Left at the Door to the Residence Hall--Religious, Secular, and Spiritual Identities and the Missing Engagement with Housing and Residential Life
Nielsen, J. Cody; Sajkich, Steven V.
Journal of College and University Student Housing, v48 n2 p54-69 2022
Religious, secular, and spiritual identities (RSSIs) are an important aspect of the complex experiences of students in higher education. Often dismissed or forgotten by higher education professionals, RSSIs have shifted drastically over the 20+ years since Love and Talbot first wrote about them in 1999. While scholarship on RSSIs has steadily moved forward in the broader higher education discourse, it has been notably absent in the more specific area of housing and residential life. This article seeks to help practitioners consider RSSIs as a vital component of their efforts to support students by providing guidance on pathways to engage with religious and non-religious identities. Additionally, the article outlines the arguments pinpointing the importance of the topic in the advancement of housing and residential life efforts on campuses. [Discussion questions developed by J. Cody Nielsen and Steven V. Sajkich.]
