Call for Submissions
Fifteenth Annual Midyear Auditing Section Conference
Mark your calendars now for the Fifteenth Annual Midyear Auditing Section Conference that will be held January 15–17, 2009. We will soon be announcing an exciting Eastern location for the conference! A Doctoral Consortium will be held on January 15, and we will also be offering another Excellence in Audit Education workshop as part of the conference. The remainder of the conference will consist of keynote, plenary, and concurrent sessions dealing with a wide variety of contemporary topics related to audit, attestation and assurance practices, education, and research. You are encouraged to contribute to the program through submissions of auditing/attestation/assurance research and education papers (including instructional cases), and special session proposals. In addition, the section will rely on your help in planning and conducting the conference and in providing suggestions for session topics, panels, and/or workshops. Please consider volunteering to participate as a reviewer, discussant, and/or moderator by contacting either of the co-chairs, Professors Brian Ballou and Chris Hogan (AMC2009@bus.msu.edu).
