Great faculty change studentsβ lives. And when they have additional resources to grow in their fields, their impact grows, too.
Endowed professorships like the new Hoffman Melrose Toro Endowed Professorship in Marketing Innovation provide that kind of support. Its inaugural holder, Dr. Lisa Abendroth, is helping St. Thomas marketing students prepare for an industry shaped by an increasingly complex mix of creativity, analytics, artificial intelligence and human insight.
