Abstract

We examine what domains from college students’ campus life drive their happiness. Using the online survey data obtained from ratemyprofessors.com (RMP), we analyze the relationships between college students’ happiness and several campus domains. The main results show that college students’ happiness is significantly related to Facilities and Social domains and that Social makes the largest contribution to happiness. Our study is expected to help college administrators, staffs, or faculty promote their students’ happiness within campuses.
