I work at a t-shirt shop here on campus and I figured that I do a form of Public Relations almost every single day. Since I make t-shirts for different companies and organizations I am helping advertise for them. I love how PR can be applied in so many ways .
Good PR Bad PR has been on my mind for some time now. With this day and age and everything being electronic with internet, news pretty much lasts forever! That can be very good or very bad. I don't really know how I feel about that. I guess if you make sure that you always stay on top of your business and have an excellent PR team this would be great.

I am on the Utah State's Dance Company and recently we got done with our annual "Diversity Week" performance. Every year we put on this dance show usually on the Thrusday of Diversity Week. We invite all the dance groups and clubs on campus to come and perform. The show usually lasts about an hour and a half. The members of "Full Circle" the dance company, had to pretty much put together a media kit to get it advertised and pulled off. Fliers and posters were made and passed out, I made shirts to help advertise and plug ins from the Statesman helped as well. The show was sold out, it was a great experience!
I am putting together a Public Relations portfolio for Preston's Jcom class and it has really put prespective on how much work and preparation it takes to have a good portfolio. I really need to work hard next semester getting worthly items into my portfolio.

Recently there has been an event at USU that has caused a lot of news media. I have been contacted by a lot of media here in Logan and have also been advised on what to do in a situation like this one.
Refer any media to representatives responsible for handling the media. If you do choose to comment make it brief and clear. If you don't want to comment at all it is ok to say "No comment". Also, to be prepared if you know something is going on, don't ignore the fact that you might be questioned.
For a work promotion recently the "Valley Channel" came and interviewed me and did a feature story on "Locker 42" a store here in Logan that I work at.
It was definitely a surprise, so I didn't have much time to prepare any statements. I guess that says always be prepared! It went really well, I just showed them around the store, highlighting our new items in the store and gave many gift ideas. It was a lot of fun!
