This fall, McCombs celebrates 100 years of educating accountants. To give that milestone some historical context, we've rounded up a list of other famous institutions, people, and events hitting the century-mark in 2012. Together they've left quite the impact. (And with more than 1 million hours of courses taught and 25,000 degrees conferred, we think our Department of Accounting can make its own "What Starts Here Changes the World" claim.)
