Looking Into the Future

First things first.

My name is Ryan Gartman and would like to welcome everyone to the NIU PRSSA Blog Page. I have the honor of being the NIU PRSSA President for the 2009 - 2010 school year. I joined PRSSA in August 2008 and have enjoyed everything since! It has taught me priceless information about the real world, given me networking opportunities, taught me skills and knowledge that I will use in my career, and possibly most importantly given me the opportunity to meet some terrific people which whom I am proud to call my friends.

As PRSSA president, I am looking forward to working with the new E-Board and all the members to have a fun and successful year. I plan on giving us a name of excellence that is regularly used by Communication and Journalism majors as well as the faculty and staff. By continuing on the road to achievement we will not only have fun, but also gain countless amounts of knowledge and insight into the professional public relations world.

Lastly, I would like to thank everyone for their hard work this year and continued hard work and dedication into the future. Together we can take NIU PRSSA to the next level. I cannot wait for next year and all the great times that are ahead!!
