scholarly journal of consumer behavior (in addition to Burroughs,

three members on that board. McIntire is even more distinguished
now. Our department is the only marketing department represented on
the board that can claim that all of its members have received Best
Reviewer awards during the last two years. This is an amazing
feat—not even the Dukes, Whartons, Stanfords, or Columbias of the
marketing academic world can say that.”
