The University of Georgia chapter of PRSSA is the largest in
the nation, but size isn’t its only accomplishment. PRSSA has provided students
with countless opportunities to form connections and expand their real-world
knowledge.
Yan Jin, associate professor of public relations at UGA,
recently gave a presentation on research to Creative Consultants. This bootcamp
on research was valuable for the members of the student-run agencies of
Creative Consultants because it is necessary for them to conduct research for
their clients.
Jin’s bootcamp made it possible for students to get hands-on
practice to benefit in their credibility as public relations professionals both
for Creative Consultants and in the real world.
Following Jin’s presentation, Creative Consultants students
requested research mentors from the Grady faculty and grad students for each
team. Juan Meng, Mike Cacciatore, Yan Jin, LaShonda Eaddy and Camila Espina all
met with Creative Consultants teams to help guide their research. The mentors
graciously went above and beyond to work on a Sunday night and to provide eager
students with additional teachings.
