Students in my Advanced PR Writing have been blogging the last five weeks. It was an experiment on my part and it worked pretty well. In fact, I think next term I’ll have the students start sooner so they have time to find their blogging “voice.”
Stu’s Clues: In my PR Thinkin’ Chair
First of all, more than a little odd that Stu references the perennial children’s favorite – down the the “thinking chair” – but he did an outstanding job with this assignment and I hope he keeps his blog up. My favorite posts –
I Keep a Fire Extinguisher in my Pants (ok, I admit it, I mostly like the headline. funny!)
NBA Severs Ties with Tim Hardaway
PRemonitions
Danielle Galluzzo is a rising star. Not afraid to ask when she doesn’t know, contribute when she has a good idea and commit herself fully to every assignment (whether it is a new release critique, a blog assignment or a corporate booklet). Her blog was no different. A mix of the professional and the personal, Danielle has some great posts:
Spring Break in Oregon (my son, Braxton liked this. He was giggling the whole time it was on)
PR Portfolios (Thanks for these resources, Danielle!)
Jay’s Ad Blog
This is the first time I had Jay Hermele in a class. Now, in all fairness, he could’ve easily been in my PR Principles class but that doesn’t really count. There are typically 100+ students in that class. Jay was a great addition. He is a very thoughtful writer and does really top notch work. He had a couple of posts that I particularly enjoyed.
Product Placement at a Whole New Level
Entitled Kids
Will post more tomorrow….

Kelli, thanks for the props. I have had a really good time doing this blog and I am fully intending on keeping it up.
It will be tough without those great prompts though!
Thank you Kelli. I have learned so much from you!
Have a great Spring Break, and see you next term in Campaigns!
