A NEW ROLE FOR THE ACCOUNTING INSTRUCTOR.

The Accounting Review 1945 20(3), 344-347
The article presents information on the new role of accounting instructor. Educators are becoming increasingly aware of the importance of campus activities outside the formal class room as an integral part of collegiate education. These activities, most commonly termed "extra-curricular," are extra only in the sense that as yet few colleges, if any, require participation in them to obtain a degree. Many institutions, however, utilize the voluntary services of faculty advisers for student clubs and organizations. A number, in addition, have centralized services in this area, in some instances to the extent of assigning personnel to and providing facilities for what may be called a student activities office. The function of the student activities office in general is to help develop a coordinated activity program best suited to the needs of the particular student body. Among the responsibilities which might be assigned to this office are: to assist students in the formation of new groups; to help plan club programs; to advise students on the management of student organization finances; to enlighten faculty advisers and to coordinate the work of the individual advisers.
