Many student affairs professionals engage in additional projects or offer their services outside their primary role within the University, often to pursue passion projects and/or to earn additional income. These sidehustles continue to be a part of the lives of even more professionals in higher education due to various reasons such as financial need and passion areas. Dr. Glenn DeGuzman meets with Dr. Joshua Moon Johnson, Marney Randle, and Nat Ambrosey as they share more about their experience with their sidehustles, “why” they believe other SA professionals are pursuing them in larger numbers, and lessons they have learned.

College student mental health and well-being is a priority across the United States because of the growing demand and increasing severity of mental health concerns (i.e., rising anxiety, depression, and suicidality) on campus. Many college and university counseling centers have waiting lists and struggle to meet the needs of all students. Additionally, many students are struggling but not reaching out for help. These challenges have led to innovation and re-imagining the most effective ways to meet the mental health needs of college students. Student affair professionals are well-positioned to play an important role in addressing this campus challenge because of their extensive contact and relationships with students.
