REMARKS BEFORE ANNUAL MEETING OF AMERICAN ACCOUNTING ASSOCIATION.
Abstract
This article presents remarks before annual meeting of American Accounting Association, presented on September 1, 1954. The term "academic" in the college and university world, means teaching and research. Both are essential in a well-rounded educational program, and the two usually go hand in hand. This Association has taken a leading place in both areas. Its original purpose was the improvement of instruction by bringing together those concerned for discussion of topics relating thereto. Whatever may be the economic success and public recognition of a profession, whatever may be the growth of its membership, however rigid may be its regulations for admission and practice, its true service and its accomplishment will depend on the quality of preparation of its members. This is where our collegiate departments of accountancy and related business subjects must recognize the depth of their responsibility. So the demands as well as the opportunities for an organization of this kind and its individual members continue without limit.
