RESEARCH AND PUBLICATION BY THE ACCOUNTING FACULTY.
The major problem confronting accounting education in the next decade and a half is almost certain to be that of developing adequate teaching staffs. That this need for accounting teachers will develop is incontrovertible. Securing this number of new accounting staff members in the next fifteen years is certain to be a most formidable task. The staff problem is one of the major concerns of this American Accounting Association, and a new committee of the Association is studying the problem. An indication of the importance attached to the problem is the fact that all members of the committee are either past presidents or current or past vice presidents of this Association. Another suggestion, non-financial in nature, that has sometimes been put forth for dealing with this impending crisis involves a relaxation of the emphasis on research and publication by staff members. Only in the research program of the university scholar is there likely to be sufficient emphasis on basic and long term factors as opposed to short-run and applied considerations.
