Spring Semester Meeting Updates
Due to covid-19, we unfortunately won’t be able to meet in person for this semester. That being said we will still meet every Wednesday at 7 pm over zoom and we will try to make the meetings feel as normal as possible with workshops and guest speakers!


AKPsi Professional Development Night
Tomorrow night, January 21st at 7 PM, the business fraternity Alpha Kappa Psi has invited PRSSA to participate in their Professional Development night which will cover topics such as resume critique, interview tips, and online organization practices. This is also a great opportunity to meet other peers outside of PRSSA!
