This handbook explains the rationale behind supervised practice, and addresses design, supervision, and ethical components that are relevant to both faculty teaching supervised practice courses and supervisors overseeing students on-site.

Until now, professional literature in higher education and student affairs failed to address the issue of supervision in a comprehensive and systematic manner. By building on the staffing model developed by Roger B. Winston and Don G. Creamer, Supervising New Professionals in Student Affairs provides readers with a thorough review of the theory, processes, and skills necessary to be an effective supervisor. Six scholar-practitioners present approaches and strategies to aptly guide personnel within the context of personal and professional development and institutional goals and priorities. Special attention is given to supervisory practices with new professionals and interns in the field. This text covers all aspects of effective supervision of student affairs personnel, which is critical to meeting the needs of higher education institutions and essential to professional enrichment.

The first edition of this book constituted a comprehensive resource for students of higher education, faculty, higher education administrators and student affairs leaders engaging with multiculturalism and diverse populations on college campuses. It was one of the ?rst texts to gather in a single volume the related theories, assessment methods, and environmental and application issues pertinent to the study and practice of multiculturalism, while also offering approaches to enhancing multicultural programming and culturally diverse campus environments. This second edition retains the structure and vision of the first, introducing readers to the key theories and models for understanding the complexity of the students they serve, and for reflecting on their own values and motivations. It provides an array of case studies, discussion questions, examples of best practice, and recommendations about resources for use in the classroom. This edition includes a new chapter on intersectionality; updates several chapters, presents a number of new cultural frameworks and updated best practices for creating an inclusive environment for marginalized groups, and expands the third section of the book on cultural competent practice.
