Communications With Members

The Section's newsletter, The Auditor's Report, has always been an extremely important part of the Auditing Section. It is the primary means of informing members of the Section's activities and progress. The Section is indebted to all who have served as editors or otherwise assisted with this important function.

The first edition of The Auditor's Report was published in the Winter of 1977. Corine Norgaard served as the Newsletter's first editor At that time it was decided that the newsletter would be published quarterly. In 1980, the newsletter was reduced to three issues per year. Exhibit VI is a listing of all editors of The Auditor's Report. However, there is an army of additional contributors, too numerous to mention here, who have worked to make the newsletter a success.

Editors of the newsletter have been conscientious about minimizing the costs of producing and mailing the newsletter. Gerald Smith was particularly instrumental in reducing newsletter costs during 1981-82. Throughout the Section's history, members have been encouraged to contribute to the newsletter by submitting articles, announcements, and suggestions. The newsletter has also established a number of regular columns which are the responsibility of column editors.
