by PRSSA's UNL Chapter President Lauren Tritch and Exec team
In 2019, UNL’s Public Relations Student Society of America (PRSSA) won the award for Outstanding Student Organization for Student Involvement’s annual Student Impact Awards. However, this year, the chapter took home a win that was even more meaningful and cherished by the group: Outstanding New Advisor.
PRSSA’s advisor, Jemalyn Griffin, has worked with the chapter for less than three years and has accomplished major strides for the group including supporting a record number of six students to attend PRSSA’s annual International Conference, helping implement the chapter’s inaugural Vice President of Diversity and Inclusion position and pursuing the creation of UNL PRSSA’s first-ever annual chapter newsletter to build stakeholder engagement.
UNL PRSSA’s executive board understands how much time and effort Griffin commits to the chapter on top of her other responsibilities on campus such as directing the student-run advertising agency, Jacht, serving on the College of Journalism and Mass Communication’s (CoJMC) Diversity and Inclusion Committee and working closely with the CoJMC’s Graduate Studies program as a program chair.
The executive board wants to take the opportunity to show Griffin how much they appreciate all that she does for UNL PRSSA. Check out the team’s personal thank you notes to Griffin below to see just how much she means to PRSSA.
