Accounting Society Our club is an organization made up of mostly accounting students. We try to let our members know what it is like out there in the real world of accounting. We host speakers from some of the big accounting firms, we hold mock interviews, and we attempt to make the process of looking for employment easier by searching for internships that relate to our field. We also attempt to let our students know about community service that is available in our area so that they may fulfill their requirements. The fun things we do are that we always host a Christmas party and an End of Year party. We also try to find different events to go to so that they can fulfill their fine arts requirements. Usually every year there is a trip to Boston that is an exciting way to get to know your fellow peers and have fun. This trip usually will help to fulfill two of those fine arts requirements.
