Serious public relations students meet monthly to hear professionals invited from San Francisco and other major market areas discuss contemporary public relations topics.
They also form teams to compete in national case-study competition. Pacific PRSSA teams have distinguished themselves over the years by placing in national competition.

We are always looking for show ideas, producers, directors and videographers. You may be able to host your own weekly show, anchor campus news or deliver sports updates. Students also have the opportunity to be part of the management staff.
