Terry Clark, Professor of Marketing

Terry Clark has a passion for all things Saluki, "Of all the universities I've studied at, worked at or visited, SIU is by far my favorite," he said. "I love Southern Illinois, I love Carbondale and I love our campus."

Clark's love affair with SIU started in the 1970s when he arrived on campus to attend college. Clark earned his bachelor's degree in 1980 and his master's in 1982, both from SIU, and a doctorate in 1987 from Texas A&M University. After holding faculty positions at University of Notre Dame and Emory University, Clark joined the SIU teaching staff in 1999, where he is now the dean of the College of Business and Analytics.

He specializes in marketing strategy and international marketing. Clark received the College of Business and Analytics Undergraduate Teacher of the Year Award in 2003 and a Teacher Honor Roll Award in 2004.

Clark was born and raised in Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, England. Before immigrating to the United States, he attended the Newcastle College of Art and Industrial Design, where he studied fine art, specifically painting. "When I left art school, I went down to London, and I was a street musician for a while," he said. The gig turned out to be serendipitous beyond belief. He met his wife of more than thirty years while singing on the street at Tottenham Court Road Tube station.
