“Top professionals in their field will be participating in our panel discussion.” said Public Relations instructor Tom Graham. “Last year, our class sponsored a similar event on ‘Why Journalism Matters,’ which exceeded our expectations. The standing room only crowd was really engaged in the topic and the Q&A session was quite lively.”
The event, organized and hosted by CCSF’s Public Relations class, is designed to explore the educational opportunities in public relations and journalism at City College of San Francisco.
