PRSA members,
Are you interested in becoming a mentor for PRSSA students at UT? I need
about 20 professionals to volunteer to spend time with a student.
What does a mentor do? A mentor would take a student to lunch, sponsor
her/him at a PRSA meeting, allow him/her to shadow you at work for a day,
or any activities you feel would help the student learn about the PR field.
It's also an opportunity to stress the importance of membership in PRSA.
You and the student set the agenda.
Students signed up thus far have interest in the following PR areas:
Sports
Special Events/Event planning
Development
Corporate
Community Relations
Nonprofit
Travel & Tourism
Entertainment
Agency
If you are interested, please send me your name, e-mail address, phone
number and occupation. I will assign you a student and ask them to contact
you to set up the first meeting. Thank you.
Tom
