Established in 1990, the Business, Economics and Accounting (B.E.A.)
Club brings students together for social and educational functions. The
Club often invites business leaders from the Columbia area as speakers
during its monthly meetings. B.E.A. Club provides opportunities for students
to develop their leadership skills and establish contact with business
community leaders.
