Do you want to mingle with PR practitioners and develop a network base?

Are you looking for co-op/work term opportunities? If so, then come to the CPRS student speed networking event on Oct. 23, 2008. The concept of speed networking is similar to speed dating in that it pairs small groups of students to seasoned public relations professionals who can answer questions about the industry. After a few minutes, the students switch to another practitioner and so on until practitioners have met all students.
