2019-20 Accounting Workshop organizers: Rimmy Tomy and Jonathan Bonham. If you have any questions about the schedule, please email Gen Hensley or phone her at 773.702.7460.
When possible, links to the workshop papers are posted to this page for printing. Occasionally, speakers opt not to circulate their papers. Therefore, the link will be unavailable.
We have been closely monitoring the evolving situation with the coronavirus (COVID-19) and have decided, in accordance with University guidance and for the safety of our community, to hold the Spring quarter accounting workshops via Zoom. We will email the link for each seminar when it is available. Presenters who have opted out of the online video option will be rescheduled.
