"My public relations major has taught me so much more than the basic principles of PR. It has also taught me how to approach leadership, public speaking, and organizational skills, all things I had struggled with as a quiet freshman. The program has given me the ultimate toolkit for success with knowledge, hands-on experience, and leadership opportunities. I couldn't be more grateful for it."Chloe HarnetiauxPublic Relations | Class of 2027
