The event featured student/professional networking, career tips, a resume workshop, and mock interviews. It was held at the University Club on the Pew Campus, and Robin Spring reports that it was highly successful.

IndyStar reporter and 2018 SoC Distinguished Alumna-in-Residence Marisa Kwiatkowski has accepted a position as an investigative reporter at USA TODAY. Marisa gained national attention for her role in breaking the story on the Larry Nassar / USA Gymnastics scandal.

If you're on Twitter or have stayed in touch with Marisa via email, please be sure to congratulate her on this exciting career move!

GVSU's PRSSA chapter, advised by Prof. Adrienne Wallace, has won the PRSSA's national Pacesetter Chapter Recognition three months in a row: November, December, and January! ​According to the PRSSA website, the Pacesetter designation recognizes a Chapter’s success in the areas of membership, national participation, and/or Chapter development.

Congratulations to Adrienne and our PRSSA students for their outstanding work—and for helping to further establish our Ad/PR program as a national leader.
