Abstract

Management of student affairs continues to be a major challenge to student affairs’ professionals, university management, ministry, government and all stakeholders of university education in Kenya. Students’ protests over the provision of student services have caused incalculable destruction both financial and social to the public and university. The study established that effectiveness in management of student affairs could be increased to a high level with increase in level of student leaders’ involvement in university decision making process. The result indicated that change in involvement in decision making by one unit can affect effectiveness in student affairs management by 0.275.
