As technology and social media evolve at dizzying speed, from TikTok to ChatGPT and beyond, the challenge is not just to keep up but to remain purpose-driven and human-centered in the digital age. While digital innovations offer unprecedented opportunities for connection, they also risk distancing us from the essence of our humanity. Responding with skepticism or creating barriers against the unknown can cause us to miss the potential for meaningful engagement that technology can offer.

This keynote from Josie Ahlquist explores how student affairs can embrace digital tools not merely for adoption but as pathways to deepen connection and enrich campus communities. By focusing on humanizing digital engagement, Josie will unveil practical, impactful strategies that foster a genuine sense of belonging both online and on campus. From navigating the evolving digital landscape to implementing student-centered practices, this session will guide you in crafting digital strategies where students, families, alumni, and staff feel seen and valued.
