Milano In recognition of their long-standing support of Auditing Education and Research, the Auditing Section gave Bernard J. Milano (President and Trustee of the KPMG Foundation) and the KPMG Foundation an Award of Merit at the Midyear Conference in Houston on January 12, 2001. Over the past three decades, the KPMG Foundation has provided financial and other support for: research (e.g., Research Opportunities in Auditing Program), the development and free distribution of educational materials (KPMG/UIUC Case Development & Research Program), KPMG Professorships, faculty research (KPMG Faculty Research Fellowships), doctoral students (Ph.D. Project and the Auditing Section Doctoral Consortium) and research conferences (e.g., the Auditing Section Midyear Conference). Behind all this support has been the guiding hand of Bernie Milano. Auditing research and education has had no greater friend than Bernie Milano and the KPMG Foundation. |
