Social Media Nuggets

The February PRSA GA luncheon was sold-out and overflowing with young aspiring PR students attending the Real World 2009 Conference. The students filled the Loudermilk Center and had an opportunity to network and participate in numerous workshops and seminars. PRSA GA President, Mike Neumeier (Arketi Group) presented Whitney Boudreaux (Arketi Group) with the monthly Chapter Champion Award for her outstanding service and leadership in the community. The event featured guest speaker Heather Oldani, director of U.S. Communications for McDonald's. Heather discussed McDonalds’ ongoing social media efforts to engage consumers in dialogue about the McDonald’s brand as well as its’ products. Spotted in the crowd were Judy Wick (Fiserv), Jami Buck (Cox Enterprises) and Ashley Collins (Weber Shandwick).
