Send us your working papers
The Texas Tax Readings Group meets regularly to read national colleagues’ new working papers. If you would like our comments, please send your working paper to erin.towery@phd.mccombs.utexas.edu.  From the papers we receive, we select several each semester that extend our existing research interests or help us learn about new areas.

Encourage your former students to apply to our doctoral programs
We want to continue to build our tax doctoral programs in accounting and finance. Please invite your excellent alumni to consider Texas for their doctoral education. We also encourage interested accounting applicants to learn more about the shortage of tax accounting professors and available doctoral funding through the Accounting Doctoral Scholar program, www.adsphd.org.

Yours very truly,

Lillian Mills, Ph.D., Deloitte Centennial Fellow in Accounting
