The Weekly Report

Members & Initiates
As everyone knows, school is picking up and the first round of tests is right around the corner. It is important that we devote a proper amount of time to our academic obligations. However, we must not forget our obligations to Beta Alpha Psi. Last Friday’s meeting gave all initiates exposure to the structure of a professional meeting. The officers of BAP were impressed by your professionalism. We would like to stress the importance of punctuality, though. Being punctual shows respect to the host firm, and it prepares you to be punctual for interviews and other business opportunities. Additionally, make sure to put your phones on silent during the meetings.
We have another professional meeting this Friday (February 15). National Indemnity will be speaking at the Milo Bail Student Center (Dodge Room, 3rd Floor). This meeting allows us to branch out of our traditional focus on public accounting. The dress code is business casual, and everyone should be prepared with questions regarding the insurance industry.
What’s Happening
VITA community service training will be held on Friday, February 22 at 1:00 PM. Training will be in the Arts and Sciences Building room 216. If you plan on participating in the VITA service, then attend the training. You will find the work difficult if you do not attend.
We have added a new community service opportunity that will take place on February 23. BAP will be participating in the Polar Bear Plunge at Holmes Lake in Lincoln. Detailed information regarding this event can be found at http://www.sone.org/fundraising.asp . If you have any questions regarding the event contact me at pbarackman@mail.unomaha.edu or Mary Schawang at mshawang@mail.unomaha.edu.
