Abstract

This study is directed at the compilation of materials, ideals and developments on Educational Administration which resulted from the Southern Regional Council on Educational Administration (SRCEA) and its feasibility study. Leadership, a general concern of society, is a major problem in the operation of our institutions. Institutions are seeking leaders who can visualize solutions to problems and assist others in reaching institutional goals. Education, too, is concerned with the need for leadership. it Is this function which takes precedence over all others in working with the faculty, pupils and community. The major findings were that the evidence presented appears to confirm the existence of guidelines for patterns which would improve the adaptability of higher education departments of educational administration and supervision especially in the State of Florida. It also appears that the kind of professional training received by educational administrators does not equip them to communicate effectively with the New Constituencies. On the surface, it would appear that there is an oversupply of administrators being trained for the job market today. However, if one examines this situation more thoroughly, one may conclude that there is really a need to train more administrators for the labor market, since the New Constituencies have become a permanent segment in the student population in higher education.
