Executive Advisory Council Spends Day with AdPR and Networks with Students

Our Executive Advisory Council spent a day with us in October lending their expertise and collaborating with faculty and networking with AdPR students.  The day included dedicated time in our new social media monitoring lab, the SEE SUITE, as well as one-on-one time with students during a speed networking session.  The collaboration with students and real world insights from our distinguished advisory council members proved to be an invaluable experience for all involved.

In addition, we welcomed four new members to the Executive Advisory Council: Joe Erwin, President and Co-Founder, Erwin-Penland; Beth Marshall, Senior Director of Public Relations, The Atlanta Braves; Trish Mueller, Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer, The Home Depot; and Brian Wong, Founder and Chief Executive Officer, Kiip.
