INTRODUCTION

The roles of the academic affairs and student affairs have always been in
its separate entity. The academic affairs are working on the academic
performance of the institution while the student affairs work with the non-academic
performance. There were battling instances in which both programs do not meet
with a common purpose. As observed, some institutions have given less
importance on student affairs programs and have not given equal attention to the
academic affairs programs. In other words, there is a huge gap in the relationship

METHOD

RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

Shown in Table 1 is the significance of the relationship between student
affairs programs, academic affairs programs and campus climate. The results
imply that there is a significant relationship between the student affairs programs
and campus climate and between the academic affairs programs and campus
climate. This further implies that the more extensive the programs of the student
affairs and academic affairs would manifest high level response in the campus
climate. As cited by Frazier (2007), student affairs and academic affairs ought to
be able to utilize effective learning approaches to promote various learning
outcomes by creating support systems that link, align, and integrate resources,
both on and off campus. It was also cited by Nesheim, et al. (2007) that the
academic and student affairs units play an important student learning and
success.

Shown in Table 2 is the significance of influence of student affairs programs
and academic affairs programs on campus climate. The result indicated that the
academic affairs programs has greater influence towards campus climate which is
reflected in its coefficient value of 0.75 than the student affairs programs which
has a coefficient value of 0.17. Since there is lower influence in terms of student
affairs programs towards campus climate, it is suggested that the participating
schools should intensify and strengthen the implementation of the student affairs
programs same as how the academic affairs programs. Both programs must be
given equal importance to give equal effect towards the enhancement of campus
climate.
