Interview Assignment Guidelines:

You will identify an accounting professional who is not a lawyer (e.g. a practicing CPA or an accountant working internally for a large organization (e.g. Fortune

1000 company, national non-profit organization, branch of the Armed Services, or a mega-church with membership over 1,500)).

You will set up an interview with an accounting professional who may be active or retired.

The Interviews:

Identify yourself as an MSA student doing research and make it clear that you will take no more than 30 minutes of the accounting professional's time.

Explain that you are in a business law class for accountants.

Tell your interviewee that you have identified him or her as an accounting

professional and that you wanted to find out an accounting professional's

perspective of the importance of an understanding of business law to his or her professional work. Have a good reason (e.g. personal knowledge, an article you have read, testimony of subordinates, etc.)

Discuss some of the core academic concepts you have learned in the course. You can find a good list to get you started by looking at the textbook's table of

contents.

Be sure that you can contact your interviewee again to thank them and to ask

them if you have any follow-up questions.
