The University of Scranton Accounting Program Ranked #20 in Nation by U.S. News & World Report

I

n early September, U.S. News & World Report released its annual rankings of colleges and universities throughout the U.S., including its ranking of the top 25 accounting programs. The faculty, students, and staff of The University of Scranton accounting department are delighted by the news that our program is ranked #20 in the nation (tied for #20 with the likes of University of North Carolina – Chapel Hill and University of Virginia). Michael O. Mensah, Ph.D., Dean of the Kania School of Management and Professor of Accounting, notes, “I am very gratified that this is just the latest in a series of high rankings recognizing the excellence of the accounting faculty, its leadership and its undergraduate and graduate programs. To be ranked in the top 20 nationally in this competitive discipline is a very significant affirmation that we are among the very best scholarly accounting programs in the nation.”

This national recognition is a tribute to the hard work, collaboration, and outcomes realized by our faculty, students, and alumni.” DOUGLAS M. BOYLE, DBA, CPA, CMA

Dr. Douglas M. Boyle, Chairperson of the Accounting Department, commented, “While we do not define our overall success based on rankings alone,

it is most rewarding to see that our department’s strategy is working. This national recognition is a tribute to the hard work, collaboration, and outcomes

realized by our faculty, students, and alumni. When you read the names of the institutions that appear in the top 20, it truly shows that our program is special.”

STUDENT NEWS My experience here has been awesome. I can’t think of a single accounting professor I haven’t been happy with. Everyone is very approachable.” ABBY HATCH

Abby Hatch – Accounting Major and Honors Student Abigail “Abby” Hatch is an accounting major currently in her junior year. A native of Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania, she is the daughter of Patti and Bill Hatch and a 2013 graduate of Stroudsburg High School. While she originally planned on attending culinary school, she decided instead to pursue an accounting career. Abby is now enrolled in the fiveyear BS/MAcc Program. She is doing so with a high degree of success, given the fact that she is a member of both the Business Leadership Program and the SJLA Honors Program. Abby notes, “My experience here has been awesome. I can’t think of a single accounting professor I haven’t been happy with. Everyone is very approachable.” According to Dr. David Black, Professor of Philosophy and one of the professors with whom Abby has taken classes as part of The University of Scranton’s SJLA Honors Program, “In my mind, Abby is interested not only in learning how to make a living, but in living life well.”

Terrence ‘Keller’ McGurrin – A ‘Third Brother’ Accounting Major While Keller McGurrin can’t be called a “third generation” accounting major, he is known as a “third brother”


accounting major. Both of his older brothers, Taggart and Tim, completed the combined BS/MBA program at The University of Scranton. (Both also went on to complete the JD program at Temple University Law School). Keller is impressed by the specific path followed by each of his brothers, since he too is now part of the five-year BS/MBA Program. Keller says, “The program is fantastic. All of the faculty in all disciplines across campus are terrific.” Keller has already secured a summer 2017 internship with the Philadelphia office of BakerTilly, and he will be working in the audit/assurance sector. According to Dr. Brian W. Carpenter, Professor of Accounting, “Keller is an exemplary student. It was a pleasure to have him enrolled in my class. It’s clear that, much like his brothers, Keller has an extremely bright future.” Keller is a 2014 graduate of Scranton Preparatory School and the son of Dr. Timothy and Atty. Kathleen McGurrin.

Sophie West – A West Coast Accounting Major Sophie West, a senior-year accounting major, is a native of Los Angeles, California. When asked by Dr. Daniel P. Mahoney, Professor of

Accounting, “How were we so lucky to have you enroll in our Accounting Program?” Sophie replied, “My Dad was an undergraduate accounting major. I wanted to pursue the same career, but I also wanted the East Coast experience.” After attending a fall Open House and being impressed with Northeastern Pennsylvania’s beautiful foliage, she decided to enroll at The University of Scranton. Sophie adds, “It was the Open House that convinced me to come to Scranton, and it was the amazing teachers who convinced me to stay. Everyone is extremely interested in my learning.” During 2016 January intersession, Sophie spent two weeks in Uganda

as part of the “Christianity in Africa” course of Dr. Charles Pinches, Professor of Theology. She so thoroughly enjoyed the experience that she is now hoping to spend the spring 2017 semester in Ghana. Dr. Daniel P. Mahoney comments, “Sophie is an outstanding student. She has a genuine work ethic. She seeks her personal best, which she realizes extends beyond herself. She will be a valuable member of the accounting profession – both for her intellect and her compassion.” Following graduation in May 2017, Sophie will return to Los Angeles to join the audit staff of Ernst & Young. She is the daughter of Cathryn and Bob West and a graduate of Marymount High School in Los Angeles.

ALUMNI NEWS

Each issue of the The Scranton Ledger includes a special focus on one member of our alumni community. This issue focuses on Brittany Moyer.

Brittany Moyer – Outstanding Student and Alumna

O

ne of the many outstanding examples of the Accounting Department’s “student success” is that of Brittany Moyer. A May 2016 graduate with a Bachelor of Science degree in forensic accounting, Brittany has already passed three sections of the CPA Examination. On September 19, she officially began her employment with the Philadelphia office of Deloitte, working in the audit/assurance sector of this “Big Four” firm. Like so many University of Scranton accounting students, Brittany has passed multiple sections of the CPA Exam even before her official employment start date. Brittany aspires to some day move into the forensic accounting/litigation support sector of the firm. As a high school student, Brittany planned on becoming a financial advisor. Oddly enough, it was her high school physics teacher who suggested that she pursue a forensic accounting career. She then researched universities that offer such a degree and was pleased to find that The University of Scranton was on that list. Dr. Daniel P. Mahoney, Professor of Accounting, counts himself among the many professors who are glad she decided on an accounting career. “Students of Brittany’s caliber make me happy to drive onto campus every morning. She is an outstanding student and a truly remarkable individual overall.” Brittany graduated from Interboro High School in Prospect Park, Pennsylvania. One of four children (including a twin sister), she is the daughter of Susan and Jerry Moyer.

The Path to Success: A Discussion with Our MAcc Graduate Assistant

F

abby Desir serves as our first graduate assistant in the Master of Accountancy Program (MAcc). Fabby’s path to The University of Scranton is inspiring. Some 30 years ago, his parents Guito and Bernadette emigrated from Haiti and settled in West Chester, New York. Later, his family moved to Scranton where Fabby was a standout athlete in football at Scranton High School. He attended Lackawanna College as an education major with a minor in business where he played middle linebacker and was selected as a second team All-American. Upon graduation, Fabby received a football scholarship and attended the University of North Carolina. Unfortunately, an injury ended his football career.

Fabby notes that this was a daunting challenge given that he did not hold an undergraduate degree in accounting. At that moment of doubt, he was most encouraged by Dr. Douglas M. Boyle, who provided him a path and indicated to him that “If you are willing to put forth the effort and time, I will work with you one-on-one over the summer to enable you to complete the prerequisite accounting courses needed for success in the MAcc Program.” Fabby states that, “During that entire summer I was completely immersed in accounting and it was most rigorous and Fabby was at a crossroads and difficult, but in the end it allowed decided to attend The University me to pursue my true career of Scranton and focus on his aspirations.” Fabby further notes: academics. After he received his “During my entire experience at Bachelor of Science degree in The University of Scranton, the business administration in 2014, faculty truly went out of there he met with Dean Mensah to way and worked with me every discuss his future career aspirastep of the way in support of my tions. Fabby indicates that this success – both in the classroom initial meeting with Dean Mensah and during the recruiting process. “was a transformational moment Dr. Daniel P. Mahoney always in my life and the beginning of provided valuable support and a mentoring relationship that advice and Professor Amanda

Marcy met with me whenever requested to answer all of my questions on the more difficult course material. They are more than faculty, they are mentors who deeply care about the success of every student. I cannot express the gratitude I have for the faculty and Dean Mensah for serving as the guiding hands I needed to get me to where I am today.” Fabby plans to graduate with his MAcc degree this year and shortly thereafter, begin working in the audit practice section of Delotte & Touche in Philadelphia. He is looking forward to his future at the firm and notes that “Rob Grasso, who is an audit practice partner at the firm and a ’98 alumnus of The University of Scranton’s accounting program, has also served as an outstanding mentor, providing advice on my transition into public accounting and what to expect. I have found that, like our faculty, our alumni care for our students and their success in both business and in life.”

Tax Professional Collaborates with Academician to Publish CPA Journal Article Charles A. Lenns is vice president of tax at Consolidated Edison in New York. Dr. James F. Boyle is an assistant Charles A. Lenns, accounting JD, CPA professor at The University of Scranton. The pair co-authored an article in the April 2016 CPA Journal titled “GovernmentJames F. Boyle, DBA, CPA Contracted Contingent Fee Auditors: Do Conflicts of Interest Threaten the Tax System’s Integrity?”

The article presents a compelling case in opposition of the practice of several state and local governments to contract with external auditors to conduct tax compliance audits with auditor compensation contingent upon the assessment and collection of additional taxes. The article also cites the views of the AICPA and the Tax Executives Institute on this contemporary topic. This joint effort marked the first publication in a peer-reviewed accounting journal co-authored by a University of Scranton practicing professional and a University of Scranton accounting instructor.

Co-author Charles A. Lenns, who is also a member of the University’s Accounting Department Professional Alumni Council and an adjunct professor, described the experience: “The article that Dr. Boyle and I coauthored was a good example of the collaboration of an experienced tax professional with an academician. I was able to present a current real-life issue that is worthy of discussion, and Jim applied his research and writing skills to turn our issue on using contingent fee-based independent contractors as surrogate tax auditors into a well-reasoned article. I enjoyed working with Dr. Boyle, and I hope we can team on future articles.”

The University of Scranton Experiences Growth in its Master in Accountancy (MAcc) Program In January 2015, The University of Scranton Accounting Department launched an online Master of Accountancy program that effectively addressed the current market demand for both technical and professional skills. Members of the University’s Accounting Department Professional Alumni Council, many who are partners at “Big Four” firms and other successful practicing accounting senior leaders, graciously offered to mentor University MAac students.

The growing student enrollment in the program is provided in the below table.

Dr. Boyle noted that the 150-hour CPA requirement and strong student desire to acquire or enhance practical accounting leadership skills are key reasons for the high demand in this program.

Accounting Alumnae Hired as Faculty The Accounting Department is proud of the fact that it has added two additional alumnae to its faculty. Amanda Sue Marcy and Ashley Regan both of whom completed both the BS Accounting and MBA degrees, have been hired as Accounting Faculty Specialists. After graduation and prior to joining the faculty, Ms. Marcy worked for Baker Tilly. She now serves as the Intermediate Accounting instructor and also teaches some of the introductory courses. She joined the faculty in fall 2015. When she sat for the CPA Examination, she earned the third highest scores in the state of Pennsylvania. She was also the recipient of the Outstanding Senior Award upon her 2010 graduation (summa cum laude) with a Bachelor of Science degree in accounting (followed by her MBA in 2011).

Ms. Regan, who joins the faculty for the fall 2016 semester, likewise worked with Baker Tilly and ultimately moved on to the wellknown home shopping channel QVC, where she worked with the internal audit department. She comments, “While working as a practicing accountant, I knew that I would eventually become an accounting professor. I very much wanted to provide students with the kind of knowledge that I had acquired both as a student and a practitioner.” Ms. Regan’s primary teaching responsibilities are in the areas of accounting information systems and financial accounting.

to these two outstanding individuals is that each was the valedictorian of her high school graduating class — a fact that became mutually known to them only after they established such a close friendship while still in college. Amanda Sue Marcy, CPA

Dr. Daniel P. Mahoney comments, “It is extremely gratifying to see Amanda and Ashley return to campus as members of our faculty. They are exceptional Ashley Regan, CPA women who bring tremendous value to our program, and their work with our students is already receiving rave reviews. Their presence on our faculty helps ensure a continuity of the high quality education for which our program has become known nationwide.”

Interestingly, Ms. Regan was a member of Ms. Marcy’s wedding party in May 2014, and the latter will serve as matron of honor at the December 2016 wedding of Ms. Regan. Another “fun fact” pertaining

Off-Campus Passions of Some of Our Faculty Dr. Daniel P. Mahoney is an animal lover. As a long-time board member of the Griffin Pond Animal Shelter in Clarks Summit, Pennsylvania, he sees both the good and the bad in the way animals are treated by humans. He likes hearing the “success stories” of the many adoptions that occur at Griffin Pond and

throughout the world. He and his wife, Elizabeth, help support animal shelters as far away as California and even Thailand. He and his daughter, Lauren, once toured the Soi Dog Foundation in Phuket, Thailand. The Soi Dog Foundation is one of Dr. Mahoney’s favorite charities. Dr. Mahoney and his wife have rescued six dogs over the years and all six have enjoyed very happy lives. Dr. David F. Salerno volunteers his services to the Scranton Ski Club, a not-for-profit organization that was first established in

the late 1950’s. Pursuant to its mission to enhance the community, the organization does a vast amount of volunteering and fund raising for charities, including the Special Olympics and the Wounded Warrior Project. The organization also donates their time and skills to prepare Christmas packages to be sent to those serving overseas during the holidays. Dr. Salerno’s past roles with this organization have included president, vice president, and treasurer.

Future Accountants Attend Eye-Opening Conference at University When Dr. Douglas M. Boyle and his Business Leadership Honors Consulting Class began to plan The University of Scranton’s first Future Accountants Leadership Conference (FAL-Con), they knew the goal was to attract the best and brightest young business minds from a spectrum of states. So, working with the University’s Admissions staff, they identified top students within Scranton’s recruiting markets who were interested in business and accounting, inviting them to an interactive educational conference in November. It’s safe to say the organizers’ minds were as enlightened as the students’. Dr. Douglas M. Boyle, an associate professor and chairperson of the Accounting Department, said he and his students knew they were recruiting the best, but nearly 70 high school students who attended the inaugural conference, accompanied by about 115 parents and guardians and representing six states, exceeded all expectations. “We were really impressed with the students who came,” he said, explaining the conference offered the future professionals the chance to take in three presentations: from faculty, alumni executives, and current honor students. “The questions they asked and the insights they had really impressed us.” The accompanying parents saw similar presentations and were equally impressed said alumna, and University Trustee Tracy Bannon. Bannon, a 1984 marketing graduate, is

now a mother of five, four of whom also are University alumni. Her son Matthew earned his accounting and finance degree in 2013 and MBA in 2014. “I gave a parent’s perspective,” she said, explaining that she wanted business, and particularly accounting, students to know how many different career opportunities they have. “It was great to bring so many potential students together with alumni,” she said, adding she always loves seeing the way current students interact with alumni and believes that relationship is “pretty unique to Scranton.” The conference included an interactive experience with members of the Kania School of Management’s award-winning faculty, the Accounting Department Professional Alumni Council and students from the Business Leadership Honors Program and Beta Alpha Psi, the accounting honor society. The high school students attending, who were required to have at least a 3.2 GPA, be ranked in the top 30 percent of their class, and have a recommendation from their school, were able to network with the professionals while furthering their subject knowledge. Dr. Boyle said the most common feedback received was that the overall experience was extremely educational and eye-opening. “They were not aware of what a career in accounting looked like,” he said. “And they were impressed that so many successful Scranton alumni returned.”

One point almost certainly driven home was how strong the employment outlook is for future accountants. “In general, no matter what segment of the field you look at — public, private, government or academia — all of these areas have shortages projected to last the next 10 years,” Dr. Boyle said. And, as a bonus, “the compensation is lucrative,” he added. Dr. Boyle said the University is proud of the impressive messages it was able to deliver to the students and parents, key among them that the University is listed among U.S. News and World Report’s top 20 accounting programs in the nation. The Kania School of Management also has been listed in the Princeton Review’s “Best Business Schools” for 11 consecutive years and is accredited by AACSB International, the highest standard of achievement. Fewer than 5 percent of business schools worldwide have such accreditation. Each conference attendee accepted at The University of Scranton will be offered an additional $1,000 scholarship. Bannon suspects many will take the University up on that offer. During the Q&A, she noted, one parent said, “I won’t ask a question. I’m going to make a comment. You should be proud of what you have here. This is really special.”
