          I'm glad I got to attend PRSSA's (Public Relations Student Society of America) National Conference in Philadelphia this year because it gave me the opportunity to get advice and insight (见解) from industry professionals. Newhouse (American publisher) brings in great speakers,but I don't always get the chance to go to the ones I want because of classes and other schedule conflicts. Having five days to focus only on developing my public relations knowledge base was great.

           One of the sessions(会议) I enjoyed the most was about food PR. The speaker was very enthusiastic and gave helpful information on her day-to-day responsibilities and on the importance of choosing the person you want to work for,not just the job position.

           Attending the different sessions also gave me insight on areas that I might not want to work in. The session on entertainment and public relations showed me that I do not have enough interest in the latest television shows and pop culture to work in the entertainment industry. All of the reality stars and movies everyone was talking about were beyond me.

           Attending conferences also allowed our own PRSSA members to get to know each other better and become friends outside of meetings and work. We have a sort of PRSSA family environment where we always try to help each other.

           To sum up,if you ever get the chance to attend a PR conference,whether regional or national,be sure to take the opportunity to do so. Conveniently,Syracuse University will be hosting a regional PRSSA conference on March 1-2 this coming spring. Don’t miss it!
