opportunities available. These include, but are not limited to,
officer/director positions, fundraising events, and community
service activities. Stay tuned for upcoming events or contact one of
our officers/directors.

Are
community service activities available?
This Fall, the ASO is working in conjunction with COOL at Student
Activities and accounting firms to provide opportunities for
students to get involved with community events. There will be
monthly activities and "donation drives" at some of our meetings.
This is a great way to get involved. Recruiters and hiring
authorities are impressed by and look for those who are involved in
multiple activities. This shows that you are capable of handling
many things at one time. In other words, it looks good on your
resume!
Did we miss something? Please, let us know. Our
contact information is located on the Officers page or talk to any
of our Officers/Directors in person.
