It‘s been another busy year at the Department of Marketing!
We are very pleased to report the creation of a new scholarship fund created through the
largest gift in the history of the department. Triple Demon Jim Jenness (BSC '69, MBA '71,
DHL '06) and his wife Sharon have agreed to fund the James and Sharon Jenness Endowed
Scholarship Award. This fund will create scholarships for undergraduate students majoring
in marketing and will provide significant assistance to students in need. Many thanks to Jim
and Sharon for their generosity!
The work of the department is enhanced by many volunteers, including the Marketing Advi-
sory Council. This group, led by President Don Scheibenreif (BSC ‘87), works to support a
variety of efforts, such as raising the visibility of the program, mentoring students and engag-
ing alumni. Council members are also involved in mentoring leaders of our student organi-
zations, Kellstadt Marketing Group and DePaul Marketing Association.
Faculty members have been busy as well. Dr. Steve Koernig received his second consecu-
tive Outstanding Article of the Year award from the Journal of Marketing Education and a
Quality of Instruction Council Excellence in Teaching award. Dr. Nina Diamond‘s and Dr.
Al Muniz‘s Journal of Retailing article was recognized as one of the top 50 articles of the
15,000 evaluated by the Emerald Management Review. Dr. Tim Smith, pricing expert and
adjunct professor, has just published Pricing Strategy: Setting Price Levels, Managing Price
Discounts and Establishing Price Structures, to be released in January. Other publications
are listed on the back page.
With respect to the curriculum, we have added a new MBA concentration in Strategic
Global Marketing to address the marketing challenges of a global economy. The Category
Management track is now in place with a list of partners that includes some of the country‘s
best known consumer packaged goods manufacturers and retailers.
Finally, I am pleased to announce the official launch of the Center for Data Mining and Pre-
dictive Analytics. The Center is a collaborative effort between the Department of Marketing
and the School of Computing and Digital Media and will serve as a home for innovative appli-
cations of data mining. As always, if you have questions, comments, or just want to connect

Businesses are awash in data, from scanner data from retail
stores and online transactions to customer service records.
A group of faculty members from the Department of Market-
ing and the School of Computing and Digital Media with a
common interest in understanding these large data sets decided to collaborate for research and teaching. They have
established the Center for Data Mining and Predictive Analytics to promote innovative applications in the field of data
mining and to help businesses with their data challenges. The Center is expected to increase the external visibility of
data mining research at DePaul and to attract industry partners. IBM is the Center‘s first industry partner.
The close interaction with industry will serve multiple purposes:
-Provide guidance on the development of state-of-the-art data mining programs.
-Offer better and expanded opportunities for hands-on experience to students.
-Provide matching services of students' skills and background with companies' profiles and data mining hiring needs.
The center recently hosted its First Annual Data Mining Sympo-
sium on Friday October 22, 2010. This half day event introduced
the new DePaul Center for Data Mining and Predictive Analytics
to the Chicago analytics community. It also served as the launch-
ing pad for the new Masters of Science in Predictive Analytics pro-
gram offered by the center. The Center will focus on innovative
applications of data analysis/machine learning across all industries,
as well as prepare students for data mining careers in many areas
including business intelligence, healthcare, education, transporta-
tion, and government agencies.
Center for Data Mining & Predictive Analytics Launched
DePaul‘s Center for Data Mining & Predictive Analytics featured
presentations by leading industry experts and scholars.
Above, Dr. Jie Cheng of Acxiom, Mr. Rayid Ghani of Accenture,
and Dr. Philip Yu of UIC discuss their work.
Right, Dr. Sue Fogel of the Department of Marketing wraps up the
symposium.
Graduates of the MS in Predictive Analytics program will obtain a variety of skills required for a career in predictive analytics, in-
cluding the ability to analyze large datasets and to develop modeling solutions to support decision making, a good understanding of
the fundamental principles of marketing and customer relationship management, and communication skills to present results effec-
tively to a non-technical business audience. The program is the first to combine rigorous analytics training with business courses.

What Other People are Saying:
Predictive Analytics at DePaul University
By Steve Miller
Over the last 20 years, DePaul University in Chicago has developed a well-deserved reputation for both its degree-
granting and continuing education business and technology programs. While Northwestern and the University of Chi-
cago compete on the world academic stage, DePaul has built a critical niche educating Chicagoland's residents at the
confluence of academics and practical applications. DePaul's Kellstadt Graduate School of Business part-time MBA
program for working professionals is annually awarded a top ten ranking. The school's entrepreneurship programs are similarly acknowledged. And DePaul's College of Computing and Digital Media has a national reputation – and world
class facilities. …Like many universities, DePaul doesn't support a Statistics department, instead offering data analysis
and stats courses in a number of areas, most notably mathematics, economics, business and computer science. The
M.S. in Predictive Analytics appears to be a collaboration of business and computer science. In fact the PA head is
Chair of the Department of Marketing, while the three other dedicated faculty are from the School of Computing.
This marketing and CS orientation assures an applied focus to the education…….
I'm pretty excited about the CPADM and the new M.S. program. My first reaction was one of pause, though, questioning
whether the curricula would be rigorous enough mathematically. I then came to my senses, taking off the traditional statistics
blinders and remembering the words of three accomplished statisticians/data analysts:
Patrick Burns – ―Statistics is what stuffy professors do, I just look at my data and try to figure out what it means.‖
Leo Breiman – ―If our goal as a field is to use data to solve problems, then we need to move away from exclusive dependence
on data models [formal statistical methods] and adopt a more diverse set of tools.‖
Brad Efron – ―The competition between machine learning and statistics can progress predictive science.‖
Kudos to DePaul for again assuming a leadership role combining rigorous academics with a practical business focus. Expect to
see this practical-academic compromise become ever more prominent, even among the most traditional elite schools, much to
the benefit of both students and business. Now if we could only change CPADM's predictive analytics tool of choice from SPSS
to R!

Internship Position/Company: Seasonal Sales Staff for the Chicago White Sox How did you find your internship? I applied for the Sales Leadership class through professor
Rocco last fall. I had senior status, higher than a 3.0 GPA for my major, and had taken all the pre-requisites in the Sales Leadership Concentration. The class partnered with the Chicago White
Sox, and one person had the opportunity to receive an internship with them this year.
What has been the most rewarding aspect of your internship? NETWORKING!! I
know most people would say meeting the players, yet networking was the most rewarding for me. The front office of the White Sox is full of so many smart and interesting intellectuals (including Jerry and Kenny). The best part of the White Sox; everyone is on a first name
basis. Also, they have an open door policy; therefore you can stop by and talk to Brooks Boyer (VP/ CMO) or say hello to Rick Hahn (VP and AGM). If you thirst for the knowl-
edge or just want small talk, everyone is more than accommodating!
Will this internship help you achieve your career goals, if so, how? Definitely! Anything you do in life is what you make of it. Whether a job in the White Sox was my main goal or not; sales experience will help you in ANYTHING you do! I may sound
like a broken record, yet you sell yourself everyday. Making hundreds of calls per day, to people that have purchased tickets to maybe only 1 game, that live in Arizona may seem like a waste. One aspect of sales that rang completely true: you never know
unless you try!!!
What is your advice to potential interns seeking a position in your company? If you want an internship in sports, you
need to get out there and meet people. Go to a few games of the team you want to work for, and talk to EVERYONE! Find out what people do, what they have to say about the organization, how they got their position, etc. Eventually you will talk to the right
person who will either get you an interview, or let HR know you are a worthy candidate. GOOD LUCK!!!

Internship Position/Company: Seasonal Sales Representative, Chicago White Sox
How did you find your internship? Professor Richard Rocco‘s ―Selling Sports Marketing‖ class offered the opportunity to work
with the Chicago White Sox‘s Sales and Marketing Department in an effort to extend exclusive holiday promotions to White Sox fans. We were trained in the selling processes and culture of the White Sox organization, as well as in-depth course work regard-ing sales and marketing techniques. The dynamic of the class offered unique exposure to the management and recruitment staff of
the White Sox Ticket Sales department, allowing one or more students from the class the opportunity of being hired for a full-time paid internship within the Sales department. Due to my performance during the class and interest in the position, the White Sox honored me by extending an offer of employment for the 2010 season.
What has been the most rewarding aspect of your internship? As a Seasonal Sales Representative I‘m responsible for pros-pecting, maintaining, and servicing Season Ticket Holder Accounts, Group Accounts, Suite and Premier Seating Accounts. Beyond 9
-5 office hours, the internship allows for involvement in day-of-game and special event duties including the overseeing of on-field parades, client tours, a weekend stay at The Palmer House hotel for Sox Fest, and various other unique opportunities. The most rewarding aspect of the internship, however, has been learning the collegial and cultural atmosphere of a world-class organiza-
tion. Once a month the interns take part in a lunch-in with executives in which a top member of the organization - whether it‘s Chairman of the Board Jerry Reinsdorf or VP of Marketing Brooks Boyer -will meet and engage with the interns on a variety of topics. Intriguing perspectives and take-aways are passed along regularly, allowing us to gain much more than a typical internship
may provide. Will this internship help you achieve your career goals, if so, how? The internship with the White Sox will surely help to achieve my future goals in marketing and sales by providing impressive
sales experience, outstanding references, and the confidence to reach for the highest levels of suc-cess. It is an excellent foundation and first step in helping launch my career path in the right direction.
What is your advice to potential interns seeking a position in your company? Taking Profes-sor Rocco‘s ―Selling Sports‖ class gave me a huge step up against the competition, which is fierce, and allowed exposure to the White Sox organization that no other opportunity could provide. Being a fan
of baseball may help, but it comes down to how hard one works towards his or her goals and the pas-
sion & enthusiasm maintained during the process, regardless of the obstacles along the way.
