STUDENTS' EXPERIENCE OF MISSIONAL COMPONENTS AND THEIR SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY AT THE UNIVERSITY OF LAGOS, NIGERIA
ABSTRACT
The study investigated the relationship between students’ experience of missional components in terms of institutionally built environment, practices for inducement of competitively relevant intellectual competency, practices for inducement of keenness in making competitively relevant global impact and their social responsibility at the University of Lagos, Nigeria. The correlational research design was adopted for this study. To achieve the study’s objectives, four research questions were formulated, while one null hypothesis was derived and was tested at p<0.05 level of significance. A total of 538 full-time undergraduate students in 400 level were selected through purposive sampling as the study’s participants. Data collection was done using a researcher-developed questionnaire entitled ‘Students' Experience of Missional Components and Social Responsibility Questionnaire’ (SEMCSRQ), where the adopted procedure for establishing reliability yielded an index of ‘r’=0.75 using the Cronbach Alpha statistical tool. The collected data were analysed using both descriptive (mean and standard deviation) and inferential (Pearson’s Product-Moment) statistical tools. Findings from the study showed that the level of students’ missional components experience in terms of institutionally built environment, practices for inducement of competitively relevant intellectual competency, and practices for inducement of keenness in making competitively relevant global impacts were high in the understudied university. Similarly, students’ social responsibility was high in the case university. The results of the study also showed that students’ experience of missional components had significant joint and relative contributions to their social responsibility at the university. It was concluded that students’ experience of missional components is a practically orientated strategy that has the potential to draw out positive reciprocations in the form of social responsibility on campus. Among others, it was recommended that the university management should continue to enhance the physical environment and components in order to improve students’ experiences.
