The Zeta Mu chapter proudly represented at the Meeting in Baltimore, Maryland, with all seven of our executive officers and our amazing faculty advisor. We had an incredible time sharing how we maintain our chapter’s sustainability and celebrating an Orioles win at Camden Yards! Learning from industry professionals and fellow chapters fueled our passion to elevate Zeta Mu to new heights. Filled with laughter, insights, and fresh ideas, we're energized to kick off the new semester in Hattiesburg. Huge thanks to Beta Alpha Psi International for organizing such a fantastic weekend and for all the behind-the-scenes work that made it possible. We're excited to lead in the world of Accounting and Finance, embodying the spirit of innovation. And as always, Southern Miss... TO THE TOP!
