In 1976, Gary Previts, PhD, Distinguished University Professor Emeritus and senior fellow at Case Western Reserve University’s Weatherhead School of Management, authored the cover story for the bicentennial edition of the Journal of Accountancy, the flagship publication of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.
Fifty years later, in 2026, Previts was invited back to write the lead article for the journal’s semiquincentennial edition.
Penned "Accountancy in America: Meeting the Moment for 250 Years," the article examines the history of the accounting profession and its essential role in shaping the U.S. economy.
