MPA Students,

As you’ve seen from e-mails from the MPA Program Office, Accounting faculty have been holding a number of lunches to get to know you and sometimes to discuss certain topics.  We currently have another 13 professors signed up to hold lunches.  (I don’t release the schedule in advance as itineraries sometimes change).

For some reason, attendance at these lunches has been particularly low this semester, and I’d love to know why so that we can fill up the lunches and make them more enjoyable for you and the professors.  If you could please send me a quick e-mail (MPAEvents@mccombs.utexas.edu) regarding Faculty Lunch attendance I would really appreciate it!

You may want to address the following factors:

*Your class schedule
*How you receive the invitations
*The food
*The amount of exams/projects you are preparing for
*Specific professors and tracks

I won’t be sharing your names, and I’m the only one who will see these e-mails.

Please also let me know the year you are in the program; I’d like to see if that’s a factor!

Feel free to add any other comments as well!

Thanks so much!
