Susan and Candace, the agenda looks great so far. Who did you ladies have in
mind for the panel members for the discussion of the role of PR in
management? PR people only, area businesspeople who understand the role of
PR in the corporate structure, or a mix of the two? I know of a local
businessperson/former CEO who may be a great panel member if we're leaning
in that direction.
Email me privately if you're interested.
Adios amoebas,
Alesa Rottersman

about

>luncheon with, we hope, a well-known speaker we can't announce yet. That
>afternoon will be devoted to a professional development session (2-1/2
>hours) with Pat Jackson. If you have suggestions on what you would like to
>hear Pat talk about, you can let us know that too. Those of you who have
>heard him at convention know he is pure dynamite. So let us know what
you're
>interested in hearing about, both from Pat and in the breakouts. We'll keep
>you posted throughout the summer, but block off this whole day. You won't
>want to miss it, and we plan to keep cost reasonable. The day will end with
>a reception in conjunction with the UT Board of Visitors and faculty.
