The Semester of Electives Part 2

This blog is the second part of a blog I wrote two months ago describing all the electives I chose to take in the first session of the spring semester. During the spring semester of the Master of Accounting program, students take almost all electives so there is a lot of flexibility in their coursework. In this blog, I will explain the four classes I am taking this session and why I chose to take them.  Ethical Challenges in Accounting and Business

Graduation looms around the corner, and with it stands your graduate school decision

About a year ago I faced an important decision on which school I would choose to pursue my Master of Accounting. Many of you are in the same boat, so here are some factors I considered in reaching my decision.

Harvard Business Cases

Learning via Cases in the SMF Program

During my undergraduate years, cases were something I mostly overlooked as they were few and far between. To me they were just another assignment/reading that I had to get done, and for the most part I would just skim through them without putting too much thought into them. However, I can definitely say I have had a change of heart about them this year. In the SMF program, they have been one of the most important sources of my learning.

Mask Mandate Lift! Back to normal?

Starting March 11, masks are optional in most indoor OSU buildings/settings. For the first time ever I will get to sit in class and see my classmates full faces and get the full “normal” classroom experience. With how exciting this is, it is still nerve racking, but I am excited to finish out the program seeing the smiles on my classmates faces!

Finally Making it to the Schott

As a Combined BSBA/MAcc student, this is my fourth year at Ohio State. During that time, I attended multiple football games a year but never once attended a basketball game. As February came to an end and March Madness loomed ahead, I knew I needed to attend a game soon if I ever wanted to participate in the OSU basketball tradition while a student. Ohio State's earlier game against Iowa was canceled due to COVID, so general admission student tickets were available to purchase online for only $10. I got a ticket, rounded up some friends, and made my way to the Schottenstein Center.

My Columbus Winter Weekends

As most probably know Ohio State is a BIG BIG football school. So you may be wondering what we do with our weekends when winter hits and football comes to an end. Thankfully, Columbus still has so much to offer in terms of fun weekend activities and events. I thought I would share with you some of the fun things I have done and will be doing this winter in Columbus.

Remembering Your Purpose and Creating Your Vision

Sometimes all we need is to take a step back, breathe, and remind ourselves why we started this journey as a graduate student.
