re: Alabama academics

I majored in accounting at Alabama. Those professors would ride your arse back then in the 70s. My roommate flunked the first intermediate class before the first test was even given because he didnt turn in 3 homework assignments. Busted him in front of the class. Told him he could keep attending since he had paid for it, but he had an F. And they were bad about riding your but if you couldnt answer a question. That would get your about 15 minutes of humiliation. But, I was sort of amazed at how far we were ahead of Auburn grads coming out of college. Back then the APB-Accounting Principals Bd and the FASB, Financial Accounting Standards board wrote all the accounting principals that guided us in financial statement prep. The barners had never even heard to them when we were studying for the CPA exam. Im sure things have changed since those days though.
