stressful enough with all the school work‚ plus needing to take care of responsibilities at home. Adding more hours would be agitating for kids.

In class you do lots of non-stop work. Then you go home and do the same thing for 5 days. All that work could easily put you under pressure which makes you do your homework all wrong and you don’t notice until you get to school. All that pressure could also fail you on a test. When you’re trying to do your

Grades; who needs grades? People often look at grades as a way to judge how a student is doing. If the student is getting a high mark then he or she is understanding and obtaining the knowledge of the class.

First of all‚ it’s not

There were several internal control issues with Arthur Andersen (AA) that contributed to the Enron disaster. Firstly‚ AA gave Enron nonaudit services as well as audit services‚ meaning that AA could advise the structuring of transactions for desired disclosure outcomes and other work and later give an audit opinion on these transactions. This resulted in a blatant conflict of interest issue that many audit professionals did not recognize. Secondly‚ the “tone at the top” of AA did not encourage ethics
