Awesome
Professor Houghton's class depends a lot on group projects and case studies. He's great and makes the class fun and interesting. There's no homework. And the only test is the final exam, which is an essay type. Luckily, ours was a take home exam. The class doesn't require an above-average amount of work. But, I recommend you to follow the book readings.

Journal of Public Policy & Marketing (forthcoming)
Pay-to-play (P2P) fantasy sports participation is growing rapidly. Yet, its resemblance to gambling and exemption from regulation creates a significant public policy concern. From the perspective of a sports fan with no interest in gambling, P2P fantasy sports may appear to be a safe and legal alternative. This research investigates that assumption by examining the relationship between sports fanship, fantasy sports, and gambling. First, a set of two-part models are assessed to determine the likelihood of participation in P2P fantasy sports, sports betting, and online gambling; and conditionally, the amount spent on each of the three if participating. Second, a moderated-mediation model investigates the direct and indirect effects of fanship on P2P fantasy sports, sports betting, and online gambling. Results indicate that playing P2P fantasy sports leads to higher levels of sports betting and online gambling. Fans high in materialism engage directly in sports betting, but fans low in materialism engage through fantasy sports. Finally, we propose recommendations for public policy changes and private intervention.

Marketing Education Review
Abstract: Marketing analytics students who can communicate effectively with decision makers are in high demand. These “analytic unicorns” are hard to find. The Master of Science in Customer Analytics (MSCA) degree program at Xavier University seeks to fill that need. In this paper, we discuss the process of creating the MSCA program. We outline the program objectives and course requirements, and discuss the types of students we recruit. Finally, we introduce storytelling skills as a way to help marketing analytics students become analytic unicorns. Student learning outcomes (SLOs), methods of assessment, and learning exercises are included to aid in implementation.
