2024 JOINT Midyear Meeting of the Diversity and TLC Sections!
October 25-26, 2024, St. Louis

This fall, the AAA Diversity (DIV) and Teaching, Learning and Curriculum (TLC) Sections will gather together to host their second Joint Midyear Meeting on October 25 – 26, 2024, in St. Louis, MO!

Our two sections share a passion for fostering diversity, equity, and inclusion and a commitment to developing and promoting pedagogical innovations that infuse these core values throughout the accounting curriculum. We hope that you are as excited as we are to merge our DIV and TLC meetings in October, and we look forward to seeing you in St. Louis!

We agree on the value and incremental benefits that a joint meeting will deliver to members of both sections. This October, in St. Louis, we focus on the future; we consider the ways in which our academic community, its stakeholders and many others will look towards our community to be progenitors of innovations that promote the integration of technology, artificial intelligence, impactful research, and effective instruction. We also recognize the opportunity to augment the achievement of goals such as faculty retention, faculty development, and faculty leadership.
