“Key beneficiaries of the fellowship
are public relations students who can be assured their professors are
knowledgeable in the current practices and issues facing practitioners and that
practitioners have a greater appreciation for the value of theory and research
of their classrooms in today’s public relations work,” said Rick White,
chief communications officer for Wisconsin Energy Corp. and Plank Center board
member.
The Plank Center’s mission is to
bridge the gap between education and practice. The program seeks to combine
academia with real-world experience, creating an exchange of information and
ideas to enhance the professional development of both educators and the host
organizations. The educators partake in research projects, training sessions
and presentations, and assist with company projects.
Dr. Cacciatore teaches and researches public relations at UGA. He is beginning his second year in the AdPR department.
