Deloitte CFO, KU alumnus visits with students

University of Kansas alumnus and Deloitte CFO Frank Friedman was at KU to speak to students and faculty
Being smart is not necessarily a guarantee for success. Rather, what makes someone successful is the ability to stay focused and work hard.
Such is the advice of Frank Friedman, a university alumnus and chief financial officer for Deloitte LLP. Friedman visited the University yesterday to talk to business students about his career, how the University helped him to attain his goals and what students can do to steer themselves into fulfilling careers.
MICHAEL STRICKLAND/KANSAN
Friedman attributes much of his success to the University, especially the help of his professors in pushing him to do his best.
"My professors inspired me to go
into accounting and they encouraged me," Friedman said. "Some of them were great mentors for me."
After graduating from the University in
loitte in the audit business. Deloitte is a professional services firm with offices all over the country, including Kansas City, Mo.; it provides auditing, consulting, financial advisory, risk management and tax services. He has since worked his way up the ladder, becoming the CFO in 2011.
"My professors inspired me to go into accounting and they encouraged me."
However, his journey came with plenty of challenges, one of the biggest being the amount of change he's been through since his start at the firm.
"When I started moving up through the company I had a new job every couple years," Friedman said. "One of the biggest things is that you have to learn to

With his lectures at the University, he hoped to show students that it's okay to
fail and that their setbacks should not discourage them from pursuing their dreams.
"They will learn far more from their failures than they ever will from their successes," Friedman said.
Friedman has learned what his strengths and weaknesses are through the challenges he experienced in his career. His hope is that students will learn these things about themselves through
the challenges they face.

"Though you might not be good in one thing, you might be really good at something else," Friedman said.
Above all, Friedman said, he wanted his lectures to show students that they have the ability to do whatever they please.

Government shutdown won't affect health care
Fear and speculation surrounding the federal budget deadline have officially come to fruition, as today the U.S. government has shut down in lieu of a decision being made.
This shutdown will concern all non-essential government programs,but it's not likely that students will see the effects permeating aspects of daily life here in Lawrence. Although there are a number of programs and services that will cease until further notice, students will not have to worry about addressing any imminent health concerns in the meantime.
Watkins Health Center receives its funding through fees assessed to students in their tuition compacts and as a result is not affiliated with the federal government in any way.
"Since we are not a government entity this shutdown will have absolutely no impact on our services," said Interim Director Joe Gillespie.
Conversely, Lawrence Memorial Hospital is affiliated with the federal government in the sense that they accept Medicaid and Medicare insurance plans. Despite this fact, officials at the hospital are confident that this shutdown will not have an immediate impact on them.
"Due to the fact that we treat all patients whether they have insurance or not, this shutdown won't make a large impact on us right away," said Belinda Rehmer, communications coordinator at LMH. "Patients shouldn't see any difference in their treatment or care."
It seems that barring a prolonged shutdown of the federal government, students should see no change in the healthcare that they are provided in Lawrence. Students with health concerns should contact their insurance and primary care providers to see how this shutdown could affect them, should it become a long-term issue.
