Hello everyone,
The attendance and overall participation for the 2008-2009 Regional Meetings has been very strong, and we want to thank all the Host Chapters and their Faculty Advisors for all their dedication and hard work.
Competition Highlight: Medal of Inspiration sponsored by the AICPA - We invite current Beta Alpha Psi students to nominate either themselves or another current Beta Alpha Psi student. We also encourage faculty advisors to consider nominating one of their members. A nominee is eligible as long as he/she receives his/her degree no later than August 1, 2009, (this includes students who are currently enrolled as juniors, seniors and graduate students). Students who receive their degree after that date are ineligible for this year’s competition. Nominators will be required to write an essay describing why and how this individual inspires them.
