Doreen Sams Honored for Excellence in Marketing Education

    MILLEDGEVILLE, GA, June 9, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Dr. Doreen Sams, Assistant Professor for Georgia College & State University, has been recognized by Cambridge Who's Who for showing dedication, leadership and excellence in all aspects of marketing education.

Dr. Sams' expertise is in ethics, international marketing, not-for-profit, and marketing research.
