The study we conducted observes the correlation between engagement in Student Activities, and Academic Success. We did this study as part of the Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences scholars program (HASS), which focuses on exposure to Undergraduate Research. We gathered data on the different social, academic, religious, and hobby organizations that students are involved in, and then allowed the participants to self-define Academic Success. We discovered that many students are involved in at least one hobby\/social organization, and that students who are involved in more than one activity reported feeling more successful academically. Overall, we found through the survey answers that students feel Academic Success is defined by high grades, a high GPA and being able to pass classes. We had two different aspects of our research, starting with a literature review and doing research using pre-existing data. Secondly, we created our survey questions and collected data from the Miami student body. After the survey was completed, we analyzed the data both quantitatively and qualitatively to see what the overall consensus was about Involvement and Academic Success. This study is relevant to Miami University, and to the student body because two of the biggest parts of the \u201cCollege experience\u201d are being involved on campus, and focusing on academics. This study gave us insight into the overall mindset of the student body here at Miami.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
