Okay Im in PRSSA, whats next?

Beyond being a member, there are other ways to get involved and obtain positions of

leadership. As mentioned previously, students may join one of the six committees or even

become a committee head. Beyond that, students may run for executive positions that are voted

on by members each spring. There are eight positions to be filled including president, vice

president, treasurer, secretary, programming director, historian, webmaster and inclusion

director.

Students within PRSSA are highly encouraged to participate in Lindsey + Asp, a campus

advertising agency ran entirely by students. Being involved in Lindsey + Asp provides real world

experience and allows students to connect to business professionals. Another networking

opportunity is attending Top Jobs, a career fair that networks company representatives from all

around the United States to OU students looking for internships and potential jobs.

There are many ways to further your involvement and leadership skills within public

relations here at OU, you just have to take advantage of the opportunities.
