The UCSB Tutors & Graders (TAG) program allows undergraduate students the unique opportunity to work with professors to teach sections, grade exams, and conduct their classes. Members of the TAG Program are able to form close connections with accounting professors and build a network with some of the top students in the major. This meeting is a great chance to learn about how to get involved with TAG, connect with other accounting students, and learn about their professional accounting experiences (internships, recruitment, being a tutor or grader for professors, etc.). They are currently hiring tutors and graders to start in Fall 2022. TAG applications are due April 29th @ 11:59pm - if you are interested in applying, we strongly encourage you to attend our meeting! Only UAS Regular or All Access Members will be allowed. Please do not share the link publicly, as we will be checking if everyone is a member. *P.S. There will be Chick Fil-A for those who sign up!*  The UCSB Accounting Program is excited to announce that UAS will be hosting our 41st Annual UCSB Accounting Program Awards Banquet on Friday, May 13th at the Montecito Club.
