Welcome back, future accounting superstars! This weekend, the Master of Accounting Student Association hosted its formal (MAcc prom) in Detroit. It was so much fun!
We met in Ross to take pictures around 5:30 PM. The attire was business professional and people definitely dressed to impress. After a group photo was taken, we boarded party buses from Ross and headed to Detroit. It took a little under an hour to get to Andiamo, a fancy Italian restaurant along the Detroit River. We could see Canada across the water as Windsor, Ontario is visible and easily accessible from Detroit. Definitely bring your passport if you become part of the Ross MAcc family! The Canadian border is about 45 minutes from Ann Arbor and Toronto is about 4.5 hours away. I am excited to visit Niagara Falls and Toronto this weekend (you may hear more about the trip in a future blog post)!
We enjoyed a delicious buffet dinner and open bar in the lobby of the Renaissance Center, which is the global headquarters of General Motors. After a couple hours at dinner, we boarded the buses again and went to the MGM Grand Casino. It was my first time at a casino in Detroit. I played slots for about an hour and only lost $9!
Our classmates bonded even more during formal and it showed how much closer we’ve grown since the beginning of the year. Orientation seems so long ago, even though it was just last August. Graduation is less than a month away and we’re all starting to realize our time together is coming to a close. Although classes are tough and CPA exams are looming ahead, we need to spend the next few weeks making memories and enjoying our time as students in Ann Arbor before it’s all over.
Best of luck as you prepare your applications and GO BLUE!
