It seems to me that as we keep moving through the semester, it keeps getting busier and busier. Homework, group projects, tests, midterms, football games, volleyball games, soccer games, cross-country meets, Sadie Hawkins the list keeps going on and on. With so many events taking place, it is hard for me to believe we are already half way through the first semester.
The business students at Tabor have settled into a comfortable, yet hectic, routine and are working hard to successfully complete their courses. For some, this routine includes scheduling time with their newly assigned mentor. The new mentoring program for business students is currently underway. Each student that had an interest in participating in the program has been partnered up with a successful business studies alum. The mentor and mentoree are encouraged to make some kind of contact with each other at least once a month. The goal of the program is “to prepare business students to become future business leaders by linking them with senior mentors who have taken that path and are committed to sharing with the next generation.”
On November 18th, seven accounting students will be going to an “Annual Professional Issues Update” which is being presented by the Kansas Society of CPA’s. At the presentation, the students will hear issues currently affecting the accounting profession and predictions of issues that could arise in the future.
The business studies building has also been asked to create a survey to collect information in order to determine instructional needs of technology at Tabor. We have sent out the surveys using survey monkey and have received feedback, but are still awaiting more.
