Intro
Hello all!
I'm going to announce to everyone first and foremost that this is my very first blog ever. This should be exciting and most definitely interesting.
My name is Sara Neumann and I am a PR student in a course called Public Relations Tactics. This is a tactics class that focuses on PR tools. I am in my third year of school at University of Wisconsin-Whitewater. I transferred from University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee studying psychology and knew it wasn't for me. I knew I wanted to do more writing and work with people every day. I then looked into UW-Whitewater and fell in love with the communications program, clubs, and opportunities.
My goals are huge and mean a lot to me. I want to be involved in an internship by next year. I plan to graduate from UW-Whitewater with a PR major and advertising minor. I have dreams of living in a big city working in a PR agency. Ideally, I would love to work my way into becoming a PR professional in sports.
What made me so interested in sports PR is a trip I went on last spring with PRSSA, a club for public relations students at UWW. We had a presentation by the Brewers PR and marketing professionals. We also toured the stadium and got to see where all the action took place and where these professionals worked. I was so intrigued by the work they do, I really want to work my way into a profession like that.
I am very excited to dive into my PR courses and really learn all I can.

I went on that Brewers trip as well and can say that it was great! I think working at a large agency would be fun because of the creative freedom you would have. I have no doubt that these courses at UWW can prepare us to be creative professional, whether in an agency, sports organization or any other venue.
ReplyDeleteSports PR is definitely interesting, I mean who does not love sports? I wish i could have went to that Brewers trip... it sure sounded really informative and not to mention a blast to go to! These PR courses will be a lot better than the generals we got done taking, because we are actually really intrigued by this major.
ReplyDeleteWe are really similar in some ways! My dream job would be doing any type of PR for the Brewers. It's so cool that you got to see a presentation by the Brewers PR and marketing professionals!
