Two recent influentialstudies compared the employment backgrounds of researchers whosepublications appeared in three leadingacademic journals in advertising. The data indicatedthat business professors producedmore publications than communication educators.The present research expands thescope and examines the followingareas related to advertising education: whether businessor communication scholars trainmore future advertising practitioners and publishmore research articles, and whether businessor communication students are more likelyto win advertising competitions. Business and Communication Programs' Contribution to Advertising Business and Communication Programs' Contributionto Advertising Education and Research: A Comparison An on-going debate in higher education is whether advertisingshould be taught in a business or communication (including mass communication and journalism)program. Some argue that advertising is underone of the Marketing Four Ps (price, product, place, and promotion) so business, or marketing in particular, isa better "home" for advertising. Others believe that the production of advertisingmessages falls in the domain of communication. One possible way to address this debate isto examine whether communication or business scholars have made a greater contributionto advertising research. Two studies conducted in the 1990s named the scholars with themost publications in three leading advertising research journals (Barry 1990; Henthorneet al., 1998). They concluded that scholars in marketing programs have publishedmore than their counterparts in advertising departments. Examination of individual researchers'publication productivity is common in various disciplines,as will be reviewed in the literature section later. When determining which discipline (business/marketingor communication/advertising) makes a greater contributionto advertising education and research, the present author argues, focusing onlyon publication productivity in academic journals is too narrowan approach. The present study seeks to evaluate, using measures in addition to counting research articles, the contribution to advertising education by both business and communication disciplines.Specifically, this research compares whether business or communication educators trainmore future advertising practitioners, publish more advertising research articles andtextbooks, and whether 1 5 Business and Communication Programs' Contributionto Advertising students in communication or businessprograms are more likely to win student advertising competitions. Background Information A brief history of advertising education Certain disciplines of knowledge, suchas History and Mathematics, have beena staple in higher education for centuries. Incomparison, advertising did not becomea popular profession until the first half ofthe 20th century (O'Quinn, Allen, &Semenik, 2000). Accordingly advertisingwas not widely taught in college until that time (Schultze, 1982). Even a few decades ago, therewere still discussions about whether the craft of advertising could and should be taught incollege (versus learned on the job). More recently, scholars and practitionersare still investigating whether a college degree in advertising is necessary tosecure a job in an advertising agency, and whether such training helps in career advancement (AdvertisingAge, 1985; Brunton, 1986; Deckinger, Brink, Primavera, & Katzenstein, 1989; Hunt,Chonko, & Wood, 1987; Lauterborn, 1987; Otnes, Spooner, & Treise, 1993; Rotfeld,1985, 1994). A generalconsensus from such discussions is thatan undergraduate or graduate advertising degree isnot necessary for employment in an adagency, but may provide an edge in career advancement. For example, Hunt, Chonko, and Wood (1987)surveyed advertising professionals and suggested that a degree in advertisingmay have a positive incremental effect on income in comparison to training in otheracademic areas. However, individuals who Business and Communication Programs' Contribution to Advertising majored in business appeared to be almost as successful as those who majored in advertising. Two journalism/communication programs may have been the earliest to offeran education in advertising (probably much earlier than the majority of business schools): the University of Missouri-Columbia (1908) (http://web.missouri.edu/Houradv) and the University of Illinois-Urbana-Champaign (1959) (http://www.comm.uiuc.edu/Advertising). Nevertheless, because advertising isa part of marketing's 4 Ps (price, product, place, and promotion) (O'Quinn, Allen, & Semenik, 2000), some people believe that advertising should bea subject
