Due to the impact of the COVID-19 Virus, FEI faced the difficult decision of cancelling the April 23, 2020 Chapter Meeting and 2020 Academic Achievement Awards. As a result, we wanted to share excerpts from both the press release and award ceremony that would have featured this year's award winners.
For more than 15 years, our chapter has proudly supported the FEI Academic Achievement Awards, a program developed to recognize and reward the demonstrated excellence of finance and accounting students from colleges throughout the area. Four $1,000 award checks will be distributed to the recipients. The chapter supports this annual commitment and deems it a worthy investment in the next generation of business and thought leaders who will successfully carry on the mission of FEI.
The following recipients were selected from the group of eligible accounting and finance majors who applied for 2020 Academic Achievement Awards consideration:
- Casie Bartels: St. Norbert College
- Ethan Richmond: Lakeland University
- Kyle Radavich: UW - Oshkosh
- Alex Wallner: UW - Green Bay
In addition to the award, these students will receive a digital subscription to FEI Daily, a certificate of academic excellence from FEI National President and CEO, Andrej Suskavcevic, and a standing invitation to all FY 2020-21 FEI of Northeastern Wisconsin chapter meetings and events.
