Accounting Teaching Scholars Honored
Students, faculty members, corporate partners, and alumni celebrated a year of
accomplishments at the Accounting Teaching Scholars dinner and reception on Thursday,
April 26. The Accounting Teaching Scholars, an Undergraduate Fellows program, are
undergraduate accounting students who serve as discussion leaders and teaching assistants
for the Smith School’s two introductory accounting courses while reviewing material
in preparation for the CPA exam.

2011-2012 Accounting Teaching Scholars
The courses are taught in large lecture sections, supplemented by smaller breakout
sections taught by the Accounting Teaching Scholars. The scholars also provide one-on-one
tutoring sessions during weekly office hours. They also get a chance to practice
their organizational and delivery skills, and thanks to accounting and corporate
sponsors, the scholars receive an annual stipend for their services.
