This study considers students in a Canadian university setting and looks at their leadership and community involvement. It is the purpose of this study to examine what influences university students to get involved or not, and how post-secondary institutions can leverage the findings to influence greater student engagement and leadership development. There is such a need to have young people active in the post secondary and community space. It is important to provide a solid and positive educational experiences; however, this also needs to be balanced with experiential learning and unlocking the opportunities that are available to complement the classroom education. The realization is that by combining education and engagement, it provides a strong foundation for that student and helps them to grow personally and professionally. If the student has a memorable post-secondary experience, they will become engaged alumni.
