The primary stakeholders for the findings of this research inquiry are the university administrators responsible for making decisions about resource allocation within their institutions. Specifically, the research inquiry engaged staff members at a mid-sized, Mid-western college campus in the US who supervise undergraduate, part-time student employees. The intent of this research inquiry was to identify opportunities that exist for the supervisors of undergraduate, part-time student employees to impact the emotional wellness of students through interactions that reflect traits and functions of mentoring. The findings may offer potential utility and application for university administrators as they make decisions regarding the allocation of available human resources toward the accomplishment of the organizational mission. |
