ITHACA, NY— The Ithaca College chapter of the American Marketing Association (ICAMA) received two chapter awards and one individual honor at the AMA’s International Collegiate Conference held last month in New Orleans. In addition to an Outstanding Collegiate Chapter Award, which recognized ICAMA as one of the top 16 collegiate chapters worldwide, ICAMA received honorable mention honors in the Dr. O. Karl Mann website competition. The organization’s website, www.ithaca.edu/ama, was recognized as one of the top 20 among competing chapters. Finally, Scott Erickson, ICAMA advisor and associate professor and chair of marketing and law, was honored with the Hugh G. Wales Outstanding Faculty Advisor Award.
“The Outstanding Collegiate Chapter Award recognizes excellence in all award categories: professional development, membership, community service, fundraising, internal and external communication, and chapter operations,” Erickson said. “This marks the first year the Ithaca College chapter was so honored in over 20 years. Credit for these honors goes to ICAMA’s officers, executive board, and the numerous general members who contributed to the chapter’s activities.”
AMA has some 253 collegiate chapters internationally, with about 13,000 members. The vast majority of the chapters are in the United States; the others are in Canada and Mexico.
Attending this year’s conference were co-presidents Whitney Kaiser and Melissa Horowitz; executive board members Ian Kaczer, Sherry Deuyour, and Victoria Kayden; and general members Lynn Kistner, Brittany Meier, Andrew English, Mike Fodera, and Chad Winowich. In addition to ICAMA’s 60 general members, Erickson also credited executive board members Julie Bartolomei, Julie Bertone, Dana Cizmas, Brandon Falone, Carolyn Larson, and Jimmy Macagna.
