Who's Excited for Conference?

PRSSA National Conference is this weekend! As I’ve posted before, I’m pretty excited. One of the main reasons I’m excited is because the ONU chapter is doing a chapter development session. For anyone who doesn’t know what a chapter development session is, it’s where a chapter will pick a topic and present about it in hopes to share insight with the other chapters.

The topic for our session is student-run firms. Our PRSSA firm, True North PR, recently underwent a complete rebrand and we are going to talk about how other chapters can do the same. Also we’re going to touch on various other aspects of a student-run firm; like why it’s important to be involved or the importance of becoming nationally affiliated.

The specific section I’m talking about is relationships. As any good PR person knows, relationships are the reason we get up in the morning and why we have (or will eventually have) jobs. They are important when it come to a successful student-run firm. Relationships with clients and other members of the firm need to be smooth in order to function properly.

This year’s conference is going to be amazing. Presenting a session is a great way to make connections with some many other chapters. Senior year is going great so far and conference is only going to add to the good times.

San Francisco here we come,
