The annual ASAC Spring Scholarship Banquet offers a time when we recognize deserving students and thank the Adkerson School of Accountancy’s supporters. The top graduating seniors and master’s students are honored, and graduate assistants are named for the following academic year. Many scholarships are awarded, and often students get to meet those who have contributed to their education in this invaluable way. Thanks to all alumni, firms and friends who help support MSU accounting students!
