• Public radio station WMFE interviewed Randall Croom, PhD, associate professor of Management, for the Oct. 10 broadcast segment and online story “VH1’s Basketball Wives Orlando could be a slam dunk for the economy.”

“It seems like there is a mixed bag,” Croom said. “On the one hand, there are many companies, many businesses, many small business owners whose businesses and services are featured on a reality television show, and suddenly there is a quick spike in sales or demand. As great as that is, it can actually be a little bit problematic for businesses that aren’t quite ready for that.”

• Axios and MSN News quoted Stetson Law professor Judith Scully in the Oct. 11 story “Florida’s immigration law leads to arrests of undocumented drivers.”

“Although the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled that race alone cannot be the basis for reasonable suspicion, it has allowed for race in combination with other types of behavior to constitute reasonable suspicion,” Scully said.
