In Memoriam:

Braden was accountancy professor

Andrew Braden, who was a member of the CWRU accountancy faculty for 40 years, died March 30 in Mentor. He was 86.

Braden joined CWRU in 1946, when he began his master's degree at Western Reserve College, and taught accountancy until 1986 at what is now the Weatherhead School of Management. He also served as assistant dean of the management school.

When Braden retired, the Andrew D. Braden Foundation Fund was established by alumni, friends and faculty of the accountancy department to recognize a tradition of dedication and excellence represented by his many years of service to the professional accountancy community as a teacher, administrator and author.

The Andrew Braden Award has been presented annually by the accountancy department to an individual in the professional community recognized by peers to have made important contributions to the discipline.

In addition to his work at CWRU, Braden taught for two years in Austintown, worked for Ernst & Ernst and is a U.S. Navy veteran of World War II.

At CWRU, Braden also pitched on the faculty softball team for many years.

He earned a bachelor's degree from Kent State University in 1939.
