Supervision in Colleges and Universities provides both theory and practical guidelines for supervisors in academic settings. This concise book is useful for academics familiar with the complicated nature of supervisory management in colleges and universities.

Traditionally, campus supervision is similar to that of businesses organizations, and/or governmental agencies. Rife with rules, regulations, and procedures, the business of higher education is heavily bureaucratic.
