Dr. Gordon is an established teacher, mentor and researcher. (Google Dr. Jean Gordon, FIU, Capella etc.). Still, is there sufficient data to make a determination about the conferences and journals?
When we see the editorial boards of the journals and see who are the paper reviewers for the conferences I think we will be better informed and better able to make intelligent assessments.
We all remember a time when Clute and IABPAD were unknown entities and we now regularly see respected colleagues at those conferences.
Maybe I am just old fashioned and just enjoy stories about the underdog and the upstart. At any rate I will follow this with interest to see how it all turns out.
Respectfully,
Dr. John A. Rushing, Sr., GPHR, SPHR
