Members & Candidates

Thank you to everyone who attended the Semester Kick-Off. The BAP officers were impressed with the number and quality of candidates, and we hope all of you continue taking the required steps to complete initiation. The meeting this Friday will be a presentation on resumes, information about internships, and information about the MAcc program. The meeting will be in room 320 and the dress is business casual. After Friday all members and candidates should have enough information to begin preparing a resume.

Announcements:

If you did not get a copy of our Spring schedule it can be found here. And if you did get a copy last week, don’t forget about the small changes that were made:

• The Hockey game next week (February 4th) puck drop is 7:37pm.
• Members need 100 points, candidates need 110.
• Don’t forget! Your membership dues of $30 are due this Friday (the 28th) and you can give them to Nathan White. If you pay with a check please make it payable to Beta Alpha Psi.
• Please make sure you are on time to all meetings. As outlined in the handbook, if you show 5 minutes or later to any meeting you will not receive points for that meeting. Our meetings are with professional companies and accounting firms and it reflects poorly on you and Beta Alpha Psi to show up late. Many of the people presenting at these meetings are recruiters and are your potential interviewers.

• If anyone is interested in signing up for the CPA letter daily you can do so here (http://www.smartbrief.com/cpa/). The CPA letter daily is offered by the AICPA, and is a free daily digest of the day’s 10-12 top business, finance and accounting articles. Understanding the news’ relevance to your future profession, career or industry puts you at a distinct competitive advantage.

• As always, if you have any questions about membership this semester or

  anything related to BAP please don’t hesitate to contact any of the

  officers.

We look forward to seeing you on Friday,

Lauren Huenink
