COPIS and its purpose and goals.

Excerpts from a history of COPIS kindly provided by Robert H. Anderson.

"Some think of it as their favorite professional organization. Some feel that its members are their most valued professional friends. Some perceive that it resembles a likeable adolescent who hasn’t yet decided “what to be.” Some think that it provides inspiration and information for being a more successful professor/researcher. Most say that it meets an important personal and professional need. Almost all regard their membership as an exceptionally good (and inexpensive) professional investment."

            "Only a little more than a decade old, the Council of Professors of Instructional Supervision has decided to review its history and accomplishments, celebrate its survival during a period that has been sometimes perilous for supervisors and their mentors, and aim its telescope at a future that will soon  have different century markers. This document seeks to explain what COPIS is, how it came about, who are its members, where and how it has gone about its work, and what are some of its accomplishments. To be hoped is that such explanations will help COPIS members better to focus the telescope, to face up to non-accomplishments, and to help themselves and COPIS to deal with challenges and opportunities that lie ahead."
