Member Spotlight
Congrats to this week’s member spotlight, Hayley Baldzicki!
Sarah Lack, a Communication Specialist at Ohio University, was our speaker and she had some great things to say!
“As the centralized communication department for the university, we protect the brand of the university on a national and international level”.
The brand of a university is extremely important, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t room for creativity! #ScrippsPRSSA

She also answered questions we were all wondering about!
Where do campaigns come from? How much creativity is there in your job?
More than you might think for a university, but you have to keep in mind that we are a public university so there are some things in the communications realm that you have to tip toe around.
Thank you so much for coming Sarah! Make sure to follow her on Twitter.
To the rest of the Bobcats: Have a fun and safe HallOUween.
