Marcom - Marketing Communications :: PR/Marcom Pros Mentoring Students
« Dear Marcomblog: What Do You Want to Know? • The value of blogging »
Looks like we’ve received a tremendous response to the ‘What do you want to know?’ question. I am traveling the next few days, but over the weekend I plan to compile all the questions and repost them. The next step will be to summon the rest of the contributors to help out with the answers.
MarcomBlog 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.

Thanks, Josh. And I’ll get on that this weekend. I have five different events this weekend, and we’ve been preparing for our interview with PRSA President/COO William Murray. So, forgive my lax activity on this.
It was a great idea and the students responded. Now, I’ll get the contributors to kick in.
Thanks.
