David Gordon serves as Professor and Chair of BBA programs in Accounting, Entrepreneurship, Finance, and Healthcare Management at the University of St. Francis since 2008. Holding a D.B.A. from Argosy University, he has established significant scholarly contributions in economics and finance, recognized by the University of St. Francis Achievement in Scholarship Award (2015).
His educational background includes:
- B.A., University of South Florida
- M.A., University of South Florida
- D.B.A., Argosy University
Gordon's research critically examines intersections between economic theory and practical applications, with particular focus on behavioral economics deficiencies, Federal Reserve policy mechanisms, and financial education methodologies. His work challenges lexicographic preference models while analyzing thick indifference curves in consumer behavior. He has extensively documented the global ramifications of monetary policy tools and developed pedagogical frameworks for capital asset pricing applications in economic contexts.
His publication trajectory reveals consistent emphasis on real-world economic problem-solving, evolving from foundational work on production functions (2010-2011) toward contemporary analyses of healthcare surcharges (2021) and Fed policy tools (2019-2020). Behavioral economics critique remains a throughline, complemented by growing attention to student financial literacy and real estate economics.
Key recognitions include:
- Acton Institute Good Society Grant (2019)
- University of St. Francis Achievement in Scholarship Award (2015)
- Multiple 'Best Paper' selections at American Society of Business and Behavioral Sciences conferences across General Economics, Applied Economics, and National/International Issues tracks
While specific student mentorship details aren't provided, his research demonstrates sustained grant support through awards like the Acton Institute grant. His scholarly output shows consistent conference participation and journal publications addressing both theoretical economic questions and practical financial education needs. The 2014 'Best Manuscript' selection for work on long-term financial theories highlights the applied relevance of his research.
