Tweet your way to new knowledge

On Wednesday, Oct 21 at 1pm students, faculty and alumni of the MSVU Department of Public Relations will tweet with fellow communicators across North America.

Join in on the conversation about the Art and Science of Public Relations.

PRStudChat is a monthly chat hosted by Deirdre Breakenridge and Valerie Simon. This month there is a competition amongst universities. (A full press release can be found here: http://bit.ly/XmLpX)

In addition to connecting with each other and leading professionals to explore new and better ways to communicate, we want to win ourselves an in-depth Skype conversation with author and practioner Deirdre Breakenridge.

Our hashtag is #MSV. Please use this when tweeting on Wednesday. The tags will be counted and the winner announced on Thursday morning.

For a list of the 36 (so far) participating schools, see this website: http://ow.ly/uy5J

If you’d like to participate, but you’re new to Twitter, we will be hosting two training sessions. Tuesday, October 21 from 3-4:30 in Seton 316 with teacher-twitterer dr_rehberg_sedo and on Wednesday, October 22 with student-twitterer hail_mary.
