Welcome to CofC PRSSA!
Welcome to College of Charleston's Public Relations Student Society of America Web page (so it's really a blog, but we have to get out to the world somehow!). As the 2008 summer break winds down, your PRSSA e-board is hard at work to make this year bigger and better than the rest. With many new and exciting ideas ahead, we hope to have a very memorable year. That being said, we need everyone's feedback into how things are going and what we can be doing to make things better, so please give us any feedback you see fit.
This semester we will be meeting in Maybank 306 at 5:30 p.m.
Our first meeting/ open house night will be September 10th. I hope everyone can come out.
If you are interested in attending the meeting and have not yet joined the club, please email Emily Coleman at eecolema@edisto.cofc.edu with the email heading 'Wanting more PRSSA Information.'
Hope everyone's summers have gone well!
