"Starting in 1972 when I joined AAA as a graduate student, the organization has helped me network, learn, disseminate my ideas and work, and serve US and international accounting community. I urge you to join."

— Shyam Sunder, Yale University

"In AAA, I have found a goldmine of resources to make me a better teacher, researcher, and educator. By interacting with colleagues at the AAA conferences and committees, I continually get ideas not just to push my research agenda further but also to make me a better educator. So many of these professional colleagues have now become personal friends and serving them has been an immensely satisfying and enriching experience for me."

— Mahendra Gujarathi, Bentley University
