EMPLOYMENT CAN ENHANCE LEARNING for many college
students, and on-campus jobs provide unique opportunities
for this experience. The resident advisor position is one
on-campus position offering the potential for learning
experiences. This qualitative study highlights learning
noted by 78 resident advisors at a large research institution
during a two-year study. Five primary learning outcomes
that were salient for the participants are shared along with
implications for attending to resident advisor learning.

Student learning should be a primary focus of student affairs work:
"Good practice in student affairs occurs when student affairs educators ask, 'What are students learning from our programs and
services, and how can their learning be enhanced?'" (American
College Personnel Association & National Association of Student
Personnel Administrators [ACPA & NASPA], 1997, p. 4). The
focus on assessment in higher education, particularly on assessing student learning outcomes, and the expectations of accrediting bodies regarding student learning campuswide is at an all time
high. For these reasons, student affairs professionals must be able
to identify what students learn as a result of their participation in
our programs and services (Bresciani, Gardner, & Hickmott, 2012;
Schuh & Gansemer-Topf, 2010).

STUDENT LEARNING AND EMPLOYMENT
Employment is one activity, which many students take part in either
out of necessity or choice, that may provide learning opportunities. It
is common for college students to be employed (Pascarella & Terenzini, 2005), but time devoted to employment is not then devoted
to academics or other campus involvement. While some studies
suggested that student employment may negatively affect time to
degree (Canabal, 1998; Ehrenberg & Sherman, 1987) as well as persistence (Ehrenberg & Sherman, 1987), other research (Hammes &
