This study explores the question of whether satisfaction with life after college is related to the activities which one is involved while in college. The study's goal is to better inform college administrators and hiring managers which college activities, if any, are most beneficial to students' satisfaction later in life. The theoretical basis for this study is Seligman's (2011) Well-Being Theory. This study is connected with the concept of holistic education. This quantitative study utilizes secondary data supplied by a consortium of colleges and universities. Multiple regression analysis is used to determine whether activity choices made by students are predictive of future satisfaction with life. The dependent variable and the five independent variables are formed by aggregating responses to individual survey questions. Control variables are taken from responses to demographic survey questions. The results indicate choices of activities while in college do impact future students' satisfaction with life. Friendships were found to have the largest positive impact on future satisfaction with life. Volunteerism and personal spiritual activities also had a positive effect. Unexpectedly, the impact of corporate spiritual involvement on future life satisfaction was negative, and involvement in extra-curricular activities did not have significance. Overall, these findings validate the concept that a holistic approach to education is beneficial to a student's future satisfaction with life. The study is beneficial to college administrators as they determine how to structure the educational process, including which activities to promote. Future hiring managers are also better informed by these results as they look for employees who have higher satisfaction with life. According to the author's best knowledge, this study is the first to examine the implications of these types of activity choices made by college students on future life satisfaction.
