PR Pros Give Advice to Students – Part One

As promised, here is part one of a two-part series of interviews with communications and public relations professionals who provide valuable advice for students who want to establish solid relationships with professionals.

Flash Communications student Aubrey Haskins shot and edited these interviews, and some of them were used in a video presentation as part of Kent State’s Public Relations Student Society of American’s presentation at the national conference in Washington D.C., Oct. 15-19.

Watch as Tom Neumann, associate vice president, University Communications and Marketing; Kevin Brosien, manager, marketing; Emily Vincent, director of media relations, Bob Burford, marketing coordinator; and Ben Brugler, executive vice president, Akhia Public Relations and Marketing Communications, share tips on how to effectively network.

What tips do you have to add?

See you next week with part two: professional dress and e-mail etiquette.
