[BusinessGrad] CFA Challenge

[Harper, Larron]

Dear Graduate Business Students,

Earlier this semester you may have received emails about the CFA Challenge, a nationwide contest for aspiring equity analysts. Teams of up to five business students (undergraduate and graduate) represent their universities in regional finals and later in the national finals to be held in Omaha, Nebraska.

The timeline and informational literature are again attached for your review.

It is now time to formally express your interest in being considered for Samford's team. To do this, simply hit Reply, add a colon, a space, and your name to the Subject line, then Send.  My Subject line would be, "CFA Challenge: Larry Harper." It will mean to us, "I have read the material and the timeline, and I am committed to making all events and being part of the Samford team."

Your response is due by Friday, October 15, at 5:00pm. The Finance faculty will consider the applicants and will announce the team on Monday, October 18.
I hope you will consider joining this marvelous learning opportunity and resume builder.

Feel free to ask Professor Venable (see contact details below) or myself any questions you may have.
