Dow described what students are doing in the course:
"Forensic accounting applies the use of audit and consulting techniques to a legal question. These techniques are invaluable to future accountants and will prepare students for the transition into the profession. Students will conduct victim (client) interviews, prepare work papers and a final work product, draft expert and internal control recommendation reports, and provide a formal presentation on the findings to local anti-fraud professionals. This volunteer program serves not only to bring the real world to the university but also brings the university to the real world."Coffee, tea, and light breakfast provided.
