leaders of public and private institutions alike are
thinking about spirituality these days, as the
data suggest that's what their students are thinking about, too
(Inside Higher Ed, 2009).
There is strong connection between institutional

campus as a result of structural features, programs, policies,
and organizational culture (Kuh et al., 2005).
