While at the meeting, officers interacted with other chapter representatives and attended sessions on professional development as well as sessions on the operations of a Beta Alpha Psi chapter.
Professor Patty Cox, the chapter’s faculty advisor and an assistant professor in the Department of Accounting, also attended the meeting.
