The first five of those years he spent on the marketing and communications group at the Mendoza College of Business at the University of Notre Dame. Chupp led the marketing group’s web technology projects at Mendoza, including the build of Mendoza’s main and supporting websites, digital business magazine, and complementary digital marketing and social media efforts.
