What i have to go through at CSUS.....

When looking at a major one of the first things you look at is the units. Well the business department the concentrations run between 66-75 units. My major is the highest at 75 units totally, which easily breaks down to 18 units of required lower division, 30 units of required upper division, and 27 units of core classes. A lot...yea i know...and this doesn't even count the extra 18 units for my second major.

So after i picked my major the first thing i did was look at what classes i had to take. Like the rest of the business student population i had to take the required lower and upper division classes, but besides from those i have to take ACCY 111,112,121,131,171, and then four of the following 113,117,122,132,141,142, 161, 172, 190, 199. Some of the professors that i can expect to encounter or have encounter are: Beirne, Brecht, Corless, Crow, Davis, Kim, Lui, Meyer, Pforsich, Wunder, and Xiong

All in all i have a lot of work ahead of me......

Looking at accy through someone elses eyes

I am currently in the process of interviewing Dave Ralls who works as an accountant for the County of Sacramento Waste Management Department. Since i want to work for some type of government position i thought it would be good to interview a person that hold the position that i would like to have in 5 to 10 years. David has been working their since august of 2006 and is a senior accountant. Although he doesn't like to read anything that has to do with accounting, he enjoys his job because of the stability that it provides to him and his family. The other person that interviewed was professor crow. He has been teaching since Fall 1987 and has been teaching at sac state since fall of 1989. He graduated from University of Kansas and specializes in tax. He believes that accountant is made up of many different branch's that together make the accounting branch.

Knowledge is the key to ur sucess.....

My Major is Accounting and how much do i know about it....probably very little. There is sooo much you can do with an accounting major and depending on what u want to do...depends on what you no. I think that just because u don't know that much about your major doesn't mean its not the right one for you. I'm here in school to learn about accounting, what to except and how to do it. I know somethings from watching other people do it but from what i have learned in other situations....i shouldn't always trust what u think u see or what u think u hear because u maybe terribly wrong. So im going to go into this with a open mind and a open heart expecting the unexpected.
