CSU’s Office of Research and the Graduate School are partnering with CSU Libraries to host a celebration of Faculty Research and Creative Endeavors in February. The event, which is scheduled for February 23, 2023, will celebrate CSU faculty book authors, along with composers, artists, and musicians. Faculty from CSU’s Turner College of Business will be among those celebrated. One of these is Phil Bryant, an associate professor of management in the Turner College. Bryant is the co-author of Managing Employee Turnover: Dispelling Myths and Fostering Evidence-Based Retention Strategies, which was published by Business Expert Press in 2012. Co-authored with David Allen of the University of Memphis, the book culminates volumes of academic research on employee turnover into a practical guide to managing retention. Work by Turner College economist Frank Mixon will also be celebrated at the event. Mixon is the author of a number of books, with the most recent being War Movies and Economics: Lessons from Hollywood’s Adaptations of Military Conflicts, which was co-authored with Laura Ahlstrom of Oklahoma State University and published by Routledge in 2020. Mixon’s portfolio also includes A Terrible Efficiency: Entrepreneurial Bureaucrats and the Nazi Holocaust, which was published by Palgrave Macmillan in 2019, and Economic Behavior, Economic Freedom, and Entrepreneurship, which was published in 2015 by Elgar Publishing. The latter of these two was co-edited with Richard Cebula of George Mason University, Joshua Hall of West Virginia University and James Payne of the University of Texas – El Paso. That same year, 2015, Palgrave Macmillan also published Mixon’s book titled Public Choice Economics and the Salem Witchcraft Hysteria. Finally, Mixon is currently working on a new title, The Beauty Premium in Academe: An Economic Approach, with Jasmine Bordere, an associate professor of accounting in the Turner College.
