2003-2004 AAA COMMITTEES
PROFESSIONALISM AND ETHICS COMMITTEE
Charge:
To acquaint accounting academics with ways and means of inculcating in
students the centrality of professional and ethical behavior in their
accounting careers, and to stimulate an interest among academics to include
this dimension in their teaching.
To encourage and support accounting ethics education and scholarship in
universities, and more broadly to set a tone for instilling a greater sense of
professionalism and ethical conduct in the practice and teaching of accounting.
Specifically:
- Develop an annotated bibliography of the literature exemplifying
professionalism and ethical conduct that could be considered by academics for
use in sensitizing students to the value of principled behavior in all aspects
of professional life.
- Encourage the development of suitable forums for bringing to the attention
to academics and students the centrality of professional and ethic conduct in
an accounting career, including the desirability and practicability of
incorporating appropriate teaching materials in an accounting curriculum.
- Continue to offer the Symposium on Ethics Research in Accounting in
conjunction with the AAA annual meeting.
- Provide a progress report to the Executive Committee liaison person in time
for inclusion in the agenda book for each Executive Committee meeting.
