UM gets recognition for keeping the books

School of Accountancy alumnus Mark Nicolas (BAccy 89, MAccy 90), a partner with Rhea & Ivy CPA firm in Memphis, presents Interim Dean Mark Wilder (right) with a framed clipping of an article from the August 2007 issue of the Journal of Accountancy. The article features the National Library of the Accounting Profession, which is housed at Ole Miss. The 126,000-volume library, which the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants donated to the university in 2001, forms the core of the National Library of the Accounting Profession, the world’s largest accounting library. The Patterson School also received a framed clipping of the article from accountancy alumnus Matthew Lusco (BBA 79) and KPMG.
