Freshman Orientation!

This past Thursday we had our annual freshman orientation where we tried to persuade new freshman to sign up for Accounting 200. Although the poor weather dampened our turn out, we still had a good group of eager freshman. The program featured words of wisdom from WSOA committee members, Norm Nemrow, Professor Charles and Professor Swain.

Senior Ainsley McGhie talks about Empowerment Through the Accounting Program.

Professor Monte Swain imparts his words of wisdom.

The event closed with appetizers and a chance for current WSOA students and faculty to mingle with the freshmen that attended the event. Overall it was a great event where everyone left with a greater appreciation of the accounting program!

Stay tuned.... There is more to come!

Investment Bank Club Activity

You really don't want to miss out on this one great opportunity!!!
The Investment Banking Club will be having a junior core alum, Carley Mattson, coming down from NYC to be a guest speaker for the club. She is a senior credit research analyst at Goldman Sachs. This would be an awesome opportunity for the students in the WSOA to learn more about opportunities outside of accounting from someone who has been really successful.

Carley will be speaking next Wednesday the 29th, from 7:00 -- 8:00pm in TNRB 260.

WSOA Freshman Orientation!!!

Ladies! This is an event you cannot miss. First of all, congratulations on getting into BYU. We recognize your talent and academic achievement, so for that reason we want to invite you to this wonderful orientation to share with you a little bit about the BYU Accounting program which we believe is one of the hidden gems BYU has to offer.

This program has many things to offer like amazing career opportunities and the chance to meet and work with outstanding students who will become great friends for life. Also, this program has provided us with great skills that can help us become more effective and efficient in our personal lives, communities and in our families.
Believe me, you do not want to miss this great social where you'll be able to meet other freshmen and other students who are already in the program who can answer your questions. We will also provide refreshments. It'll be sooo helpful and fun!!! So, write it down on your calendars.
