By Dylan Hope, 1910 PR Associate Before I get into my reflection fully, I want to take a minute to admit that I came into this class with absolutely zero ideas or expectations about it. I had never heard about it from anyone on campus, nor was it ever presented as an option to take if I needed credits to graduate. So now, after spending an entire semester in 1910 PR, I want to get into my thoughts and reflections about this course, and things that I have learned or struggled

By: Cole Brackett, 1910 PR Associate My experience with 1910 PR was an extremely valuable experience, allowing me to gather skills I would have never imagined myself using.

I remember when I was starting this class I had no clue what I was getting myself into. At the beginning, I had no basic understanding of public relations concepts, or how I would interact with a client's work.

By Jeffrey Williams, 1910 PR Associate We’re finally here. The anticipated finale of my collegiate career, unless I decide to pursue further education in the future, that is. My return to school and 1910 PR has been quite unorthodox, but familiar in an odd way. Before this semester, my last full semester was the spring of 2021. Most classes remained fully online, with a few returning to in-person settings. Being fully online, I’m not able to fully integrate with the team as m

By Alexis Navarette, 1910 PR Associate Before joining 1910 PR, I was not aware what this class consisted of; this course was merely a way to earn an extra credit needed for graduation. However, throughout the semester, I realized that this course was like no other. I was so accustomed to taking courses, studying the content, and then completing exams, that when I joined 1910 PR, I was introduced to a completely different environment. On the first day of class, we were informe

By Hailey Hiller, 1910 PR Associate Throughout this semester in 1910 PR, I gained a much clearer understanding of public relations and how it works in a professional setting. At first, I mostly thought of PR as social media and event planning, but I’ve realized it is much more strategic. Hailey Hiller and Lorelai Moyer work on their laptops during a 1910 PR staff meeting PR is about building relationships, communicating well, and representing a brand in a way that connects wi
