“…This study responds to prior calls for greater student engagement with challenging social issues and the gender violence and leadership literatures. We join others who call for more tailored measures of leadership self-efficacy that better gauge a leader's belief in their capabilities in a particular leadership situation (Murphy & Johnson, 2016), as well as for more diverse measures of leadership than currently exist in the literature (Huntrods et al, 2017).…”

This exploratory study examined the leadership education potential of sexual assault prevention training via a prevention approach that expressly constructs bystander education as a leadership issue. Evaluation of the Mentors in Violence Prevention (MVP) program offers a practical application of a leadership education approach through a feminist lens, a framework recently advocated by Iverson, McKenzie, and Halman (2019) to better prepare student leaders for active engagement with the central social issues of their time. After undergoing one-day MVP leadership trainings, student leaders (n = 239) evidenced positive gains in such areas as leadership readiness in gender violence prevention, confidence as bystanders, and a willingness to help others. Results also suggest that participants' prior knowledge, leadership background, and peer group membership shaped their engagement with the program. As a feminist method, MVP worked well for both women and men and across students' varying racial/ethnic identities, but differences by peer group reveal areas in which additional research and intervention programming may be needed.

“…The authors of the current paper identified 11 studies examining student development in both varsity (f = 8) and recreational sport (f = 3) environments. Of the nine that explicitly identified their theoretical framework, all used some combination of theoretical frames designed by Astin, Chickering, or Kuh (Andrassy, Svensson, Bruening, Hum, & Chung, 2014;Comeaux, Speer, Taustine, & Harrison, 2011;Dugan, Turman, & Torrez, 2015;Folsdorf et al, 2016;Forrester, 2015;Gayles & Hu, 2009;Gayles, Rockenbach, & Davis, 2012;Huntrods, An, & Pascarella, 2017;Navarro & Malvaso, 2015). This observation is not meant to diminish the work of these scholars; on the contrary their work is integral to broadening our understanding of both sport contexts.…”

Those providing and managing sport in primary, secondary and post-secondary educational settings must be cognizant of the need for sport programs to enhance, rather than detract from, the educational environment. American post-secondary education provides an important context for inquiry in sport for two primary reasons. First, college enrollment marks a significant period of transition for individuals who are at a developmentally impressionable stage of their lives. Second, roughly 80% of all college students participate in some form of physical activity during their time on a college or university campus, with roughly half of them participating in formal sport. Two bodies of literature provide guidance for sport managers in US higher education: 1) sport development theory and 2) student development theory. This paper aims to provide a road map to facilitate the conversation between these two bodies of theory to unpack the potential contribution of sport to the individual development of sport participants at American colleges and universities.
