| Abstract: | This article discusses the potential for student employment to be considered a high-impact practice (HIP) in higher education. The authors highlight the benefits of student employment, particularly for low-income, first-generation college students, who often rely on work to offset the costs of their education. The article presents case studies from two campuses within the State University of New York (SUNY) system, Binghamton University and Stony Brook University, which have implemented strategies to transform student employment into meaningful learning experiences. The authors provide recommendations for other institutions interested in elevating student employment as a HIP, emphasizing the importance of connecting career services, infusing high-impact elements into roles, and prioritizing supervisor training.
