We are excited to bring you the Fall 2015 issue of the Journal of Counselor Preparation and Supervision. This issue includes eight articles on a variety of topics.

In counselor education, authors investigate counseling student perceptions of sexual violence (Kushmider, Beebe & Black), explore the dissertation process at CACREP-accredited doctoral programs (Borders, Wester, Flickling, & Adamson), conduct a qualitative study exploring Black students’ preparation to counsel White clients (Haskins, Phelps & Crowell), survey pre-tenured counselor educators to determine the prevalence of and barriers to providing direct counseling services (Reljic, Lindsey & Protivnak). Focusing on counselor supervision, Shurts describes how to integrate postmodernism into counselor supervision and Felton, Morgan, and Bruce explore supervisors’ experiences in triadic supervision. Adding to the school counseling literature, Ockerman, Patrikakou, and Hollenbeck focus on school counselors’ confidence in providing Response to Intervention and Perusse, Poynton, Parzych and Goodnough compare current a survey of school counseling programs with a survey from 2001 and discuss how school counseling programs have changed. All of these manuscripts add significant information to the counseling, counselor educator, and supervision fields.
