Seyyed Vali Reza Nasr, a professor of political science at the University of San DiegQ, made an even blunter charge in a speech delivered in Washington last year: "The rogue states [such as Iraq and Libya] are," he said, "less important in the radicalization of Islam than Saudi Arabia." Asked recently by U.S. News to elaborate, he explained, "Until now, Saudi Ara bia has said to the United States that what it does for the Mus lim world is none of its business. But the unintended conse quences [of Saudi actions] are now being visited upon the United States. We now know where the ideological fervor is coming from." But what can America do in this struggle within Islam, be yond urging the Saud family to beware of what it sows? Quite clearly, America needs to combat Islamist propaganda about its role in the Middle East, particularly its caricature of U.S. dealings with Israel and the Palestinians. Additionally, Amer ica can and should encourage Saudi Arabia and other allies in the Islamic world to truly liberalize their regimes-even at the risk of alienating some of the major suppliers of U.S. oil by doing so. And certainly, it is in America's interests to support the voices of moderation engaged in Islam's momentous culture war. What will it take to accomplish all of this? To begin with, a broader knowledge of the languages and traditions of a great civ ilization than we have previously at tempted to acquire. • 4 -' :, ~ '~ t Announcing 2002-2003 Gandhi Fellowships

Continued on Page 28 www.calcpa.org October 2001 I California CPA 23 Wi 2 Pathways for CPA Licensure in California ' D n' L in FOUND OPPORTUNmES FOR THE LITTLE GUY he single biggest event to impact California CPAs and candidates this year is not the AICPA's proposed global credential. It is the pending passage of AB 585 and SB 133. TThe resulting new laws and regulations will allow small to medium-sized CPA firms , as well as many businesses, to compete for the best and brightest as never before. Under the proposed new law and CBA regulations, candidates can acquire the experience they need from any licensed CPA in California. This means candidates can train under the CPA who is the information services director at Warner Brothers or the CPA who is a sole practi tioner in Lodi just as easily as they can under a partner at one of the Big Five firms. Under the old licensing requirements, CPA candidates had to log 500 hours of attest experience. This could prove diffi cult if not impossible for candidates who wanted to work in industry or for smaller CPA firms. Tales of candidates putting in a more than 40-hour work week and then moonlighting to accrue audit hours were fairly common . Earning the necessary audit hours was all in a day's work for candidates with the Big Five, IRS or larger firms in public practice who offered attest services. As a result, these firms traditionally have had an easier time recruiting the oft-sought best and brightest from California's colleges and universities. "The tables have turned ," says CalCPA Chair David George. "Smaller firms have always been able to offer quality-of-life benefits that meet or exceed those offered by larger firms, but until now they haven't been able to compete for some of the profession's best incoming talent. It's time for smaller CPA firms and for businesses that employ CPAs to brush off their suits and get ready to attend career day at their local college or university."
