Marcom - Marketing Communications :: PR/Marcom Pros Mentoring Students
« Seven Keys to Unlocking Great PR • The Law of Complexity Demands Clear Branding »
Yes, you might have better things to do during spring break, but for those students in the metro-Atlanta area we’re planning a blogger dinner on Tuesday, March 28th. The dinner will be at The Grape in the Norcross area. You can read all the details here.
New PR - Crispy NewsMarcomBlog is a collaborative effort between sixteen terrific public relations and marketing professionals and students in Auburn University’s Department of Communication and Journalism.
Our purpose: To actively involve students in conversations with practitioners from around the world. Blogs offer a unique opportunity for students to converse with professionals they never would have met before. Why not harness the power of CMS to bring people together. Think of this as part mentoring exercise by our contributors and part incubator for future PR/Marcom professionals.

I am from Roswell and did not even know about The Grape in Norcross. Norcross is right next to me. What exactly happens at a Blogger Dinner? I really do wish I could go if I was not going on Spring Break simply because the blog phenomenon is so interesting to me. There are so many aspects to blogging. Good luck and I hope it is a wonderful evening!

What happens? Hmmmm……what do you think happens when you get a bunch of bloggers in the same room???
Actually the events are usually great. The majority of the time you’re finally meeting somebody that you’ve ‘read’ for a while so it’s like you’re old friends.
At this point we have close to 10 people coming. I expect that to grow by a few more as the day approaches.
