The Student Life Initiatives Project (SLIP) will work to promote student connectivity across the OSUN network and to promote the development of cocurricular liberal arts and sciences practices on OSUN campuses and at the network level. Through an annual student government retreat, a student leadership conference, a student journal, and a student-to-student academic support network, SLIP will be a primary vehicle through which students engage in civic life. SLIP expands civic engagement in three ways: it develops and strengthens civic engagement on each OSUN campus, it creates new pathways to civic engagement by inviting students to work with one another across campuses, and it inculcates the values of civic engagement in all students.
