The Journal of College and University Student Housing - Volume 38, No. 1 - 7

	 For	decades,	student	affairs	practitioners	and	academic	administrators	have	called	for	more	collaboration	between	these	two	areas	 on	 college	 and	 university	 campuses	 in	 attempts	 to	 improve	 the	 undergraduate	experience	(for	instance,	AAHE,	ACPA,	&	NASPA,	 1998).	 Virtually	 all	 institutions	 of	 higher	 education	 and	 housing	 and	 residence	 life	 operations	 support	 various	 types	 of	 faculty	 involvement	 with	 students	 outside	 of	 the	 classroom.	 A	 large	 body	 of	 research	 exists	 on	 living-learning	 communities,	 student	 outcomes	 as	 a	 result	 of	 participating	 in	 such	 communities,	 and	 student-faculty	interaction	(e.g.,	Levine-Laufgraben	&	Shapiro,	2004;	 Schroeder,	 Mable,	 &	 Associates,	 1994;	 Shapiro	 &	 Levine,	 1999;	 Smith,	 MacGregor,	 Matthews,	 &	 Gabelnick,	 2004).	 Conversely,	 a	 rather	small	and	aging	literature	exists	on	why	faculty	get	engaged	 in	residence	halls	and	residential	programming,	who	those	faculty	 are,	what	they	gain	from	participating,	and	what	impacts	they	are	 having	on	the	residential	students	with	whom	they	interact.	A	few	 studies	have	attempted	to	answer	these	questions;	however,	many	 of	 the	 faculty	 studied	 in	 this	 research	 have	 likely	 retired	 (Colwell	 &	Lifka,	1983;	Golde	&	Pribbenow,	2000;	Pascarella	&	Terenzini,	 1977;	Schuh	&	Kuh,	1984).	 	 The	 articles	 in	 this	 special	 issue	 tell	 stories	 of	 faculty	 participation	in	residential	programs.	Although	it	was	not	intentionally	 structured	 thus,	 all	 the	 empirical	 studies	 are	 qualitative.	 Future	 studies,	both	qualitative	and	quantitative,	will	help	expand	the	understanding	of	these	partnerships	between	residential	programs/ life	staff	in	particular	and	faculty	who	choose	to	engage	with	students	 in	 the	 residential	 setting.	 As	 residence	 life	 professionals	 with	 specific	 job	 responsibilities	to	 serve	 as	 the	 conduit	 between	 faculty	 and	 residential	 programs,	 we	 have	 amassed	 significant	 experiential	 information	 about	 these	 collaborations.	 However,	 few	empirical	studies	exist	to	inform	the	work	of	professionals	in	 student	affairs	regarding	these	partnerships.	Thus,	a	special	issue	 of	The Journal of College and University Housing Officers	focused	on	 faculty-residence	life	programs	and	partnerships	seemed	to	be	in	 order	and	necessary.	 	 Using	 Motivational	 Systems	 Theory	 (Ford,	 1992)	 as	 a	 framework,	 Kirsten	 Kennedy	 explores	 what	 motivated	 faculty	 participation	 in	 residential	 learning	 communities	 at	 three	 institutions.	 Faculty	members’	capability	and	context	beliefs	suggested	a	contin-

All residence life professionals currently working with faculty or those seeking to establish connections with the academic side of the institution will benefit from reading and discussing this special issue .
