Hi Everyone!
Our last meeting will be this Thursday, April 18, from 3:30 to 4:30 in room 113 of Fletcher Hall. Our speaker will be a representative from Mohawk. Pizza and drinks will be provided.
After the speaker, we will hold elections for the upcoming fall semester. Each position is available to run for. Leadership in an academic organization not only places a good mark on a resume, but trains you to better lead your members, and also teaches you to work as a synchronized team. Another bonus it gives you is greater networking opportunities, for you are in direct contact with many Accounting professionals in the Chattanooga area. Please consider running to extend the legacy of the UTC IMA!
