If you missed PRSSA and the Love Communications tour last night, you missed out big time. It was great. Thank you, thank you to Love Communications for making this possible. We were invited by the University of Utah chapter to join them, thank you for thinking of us!

We got to see the sweet layout of Love's offices and studio and then had a great Q&A session with two of their PR people: Kelly and John. The questions ranged from how to get that first internship to how to make the most of your education. We also discussed what to expect your first few years in the PR field and how to be prepared for them.

The insight given was invaluable and the networking between students and Love Communications was just as good. Kelly and John have had years of experience and know what it's like to enter the field. They had first hand advice about how to make yourself marketable. They also shared some great success stories of PR campaigns they have worked on gave pointers on how students can strengthen their PR skills now so they will be more valuable once they enter the field.

Again, thank you Love Communications for hosting us and thank you to the University of Utah of putting the event together.

For those of you who attended, what were your favorite parts? What were some takeaways you would share with people who missed out?

The agency tour was amazing! I think I want to work in an agency now.

I was really so helpful. Not only do I want to work in an agency, but I want to work in a full-service agency. I loved how closely ad/pr worked together to create such meaningful campaigns. Thanks BYU PRSSA, U of U PRSSA and Love Comm for making this possible!
