Announcing the Reformation of the WWU Accounting Society! I’m excited to share that the WWU Accounting Society has been officially recognized as a university club! This achievement strengthens the accounting community at Western Washington University by creating an inclusive space for students at all levels to engage in networking, professional development, and community-building. Most importantly, it ensures that students’ involvement and contributions are formally recognized—giving them the credit they deserve for their engagement. The WWU Accounting Society serves as an entry point for students interested in accounting, complementing the Theta Phi Chapter of Beta Alpha Psi at Western Washington University while expanding outreach to freshman and sophomore students. Through WIN and Club Hub resources, we now have greater capacity to increase visibility for the Department of Accounting and Major, ensuring that students have the support and opportunities they need early in their academic careers. Additionally, this recognition allows us to collaborate more effectively with other student organizations and university events, strengthening our connections across campus and providing even more opportunities for our members. I would like to extend my deepest appreciation to Renee Gayden and Dr. Steve Smith for their thought-provoking insights and unwavering commitment to clarity in student organization policies. Their engagement in these discussions has, without a doubt, helped inspire this development. Looking forward to seeing the positive impact of this society on our students and the future of accounting at WWU! Finally, none of this would be possible without the Executive Committee and our Faculty Advisors! Chance Chittim William Bogar Jacqueline Soto Mendoza Kristen S.
