General Meetings
About the meetings |
General Information |
|
The primary purpose of the general meetings is to educate our members on the variety of career opportunities throughout the accounting profession, and prepare them for the on-campus recruiting experience.
At each meeting, guest speakers from different firms discuss the latest trends and perspectives involving local, mid-size, "Big Four," government and management accounting firms. We have also hosted speakers from CPA exam prep and review agencies who discuss updated exam information and preparation tips. |

Flagship Events
Career Connections
The Fall semester flagship event is Career Connections. This trade-show style event places society members in the thick of recruiting season. Accounting firms, not-for-profit entities, and government agencies are eager to meet students and get a feel for the potential new recruits.

Spring Banquet
The Spring semester flagship event is the Spring Awards & Recognition Banquet. This networking event and formal dinner provides an opportunity for society members to have a catered meal with potential future employers. Scholarship awards are presented as the society brings the academic year to a close.

Social events
|
The Accounting Society provides opportunities for interacting with other students, professors and recruiters in a more casual environment. These events allow for networking in settings outside of the presentations and job fairs. Most social functions are free of charge, and involve food and entertainment. Attend an Accounting Society social to build your network of students pursuing the same goals as you while learning about the road to completing these goals together.
At our Bowling Night we encourage Accounting Society members who attend to socialize with officers and other fellow accounting students. This event is usually followed by more time to socialize while having dinner at Sublime Ale House. Trivia Night at Sublime Ale House is a new event that we hope will become a classic for the Accounting Society. It's always a good time trying to figure out the answers to the topics given, and bonding over delicious food! Other social events have included: Happy hour at various local breweries, the Holiday social, the Spring social, Beach Bonfire, and many more! |

Community Service
|
The Student Accounting Society is continuously involved in community service events throughout the semester. These events are a great way to build relationships with other Accounting members while helping out the local community, and they’re fun!
