October 2023
Dear Students and Colleagues,

It's hard to believe that we are halfway through the fall semester. It has been wonderful to see many new faces on campus and to welcome back our continuing students.

Read on to see highlights of our semester so far, and be sure to scroll to the bottom to see our upcoming events, including an Insights From Experts session on “Doing Well by Doing Good,” which will feature three business professionals discussing the social responsibility efforts at their respective organizations.

Regards,

MaryAnne Hyland, PhD

SCHOOL NEWS
Sundaes and Smiles at the Annual Welcome Social

Students, faculty and staff enjoyed ice cream and socialized at the Willumstad School's annual Welcome Social. Representatives from career services and various clubs were also there to encourage students to get involved.
Counting Success: Accounting Networking Event Sets All-Time Attendance Record

The first two months of the fall semester represent the height of the recruiting season for CPA firms. On September 28, approximately 90 students, including accounting, finance and computer science majors, met with professionals from 18 firms at designated tables, as well as representatives of other firms, who circulated around the room. More than half of the 80 professionals participating in this event were Adelphi alumni, who were paying it forward by assisting in recruiting our students to their firms.

The success of this event would not have been possible without the dedicated student officers of the Accounting Society: Alex Benincasa, Miguel Bonilla, Heather Cattani, Angela Lignelli, Robert Mallamo, Alma Lorena Monreal Munoz and Jacklyn Nunziata.
