🙂 I *know* I’m not a “big name”.
I am, however, very grateful that you are all exploring the network. Simply put, the PROpenMic network can be as good as you, the members, make it.
All I did was put the site up. If it was just me there, do you really think anyone would visit? Heck, I probably wouldn’t go there. 😉
The practitioners are there for you and the faculty. The faculty are there for you and the practitioners. You’re there to learn from all of them – and the other students. Take a chance. Explore and have fun. Take yourself out of your comfort zone. Launch yourself into the discussions. I’ve seen students start careers off of the contacts they make online. Seriously.
Thanks, Barbara. Glad to see you all involved.
*blush*
I hardly consider myself a “big name”. (Just louder and perhaps a bit more experimental than most.)
But thanks! *8-) \m/
PR OpenMic provides resources for students and practitioners. OpenMic makes a source for helpful writting sources and contacts to related links.

OpenMic can serve as a resource for contacts and a helping hand with resources.

_I think that i will benefit from this site becuase it is a great way to network with practitioners who have been working in the PR field for a long time!
The most beneficial area of PR Open Mic is the networking aspect of it. You are able to meet and talk to people beneficial to the field that you would never be able to meet otherwise.
Big name people include Phil Gomez, Paul Young, and James Grunig
I think I could benefit from this by asking questions to professors and other students about work or projects that they have already completed.
I can contribute by talking about my experience, sharing ideas as I work with the City of Statesboro and Campus Special as an intern.
What is the most beneficial area (or areas) of PR OpenMic? Why?
forum (campaigns, writing, research, case studies, corporate and nonprofit pr)
Who are some “big name” PR practitioners who have already joined PR OpenMic?

How do you think you could benefit from PR OpenMic?
PR OpenMic offers several different categories that will benefit students and practitioners. It shows information about different events and and conferences that may be helpful to PR students/practitioners.

I could contribute by posting my ideas so others can view them.
OpenMic will allow me to network with other upcoming Practioners.
Some big name in the field of P.R are: Phil Gomes,James E. Grunig, Robert French.
I think i’d benefit by being able to make myself more knowledgable of the things that I am not already aware of .
I could share the the knowledge I have been given and experiences with others on this site.
The PROpenMic site is another PR networking site. The most beneficial parts are the stories that the practicioners write. I like to read them and make my own comments about them.
Some big names in PROpenMic are Phil Gomes, Paul Young, James Grunig, adn Robert French.
I could benefit by this site in many ways. It gives me another place to practice my writing and get opinions from others. Also, I can read other people’s blogs and get some ideas about PR.
Some of the most beneficial features of this site is its ability to work with other sites to offer great resources and tools for building a super site!
This site gives a new outlook on the world of PR Practitioners and opportunities available in the field.
I believe that the most beneficial area of PR OpenMic is the internship and job search links. I think it’s difficult for alot of public relations majors to attain a job due to competition and lack of opportunities.
Phil Gomes, James Grunig, & Robert French
I think I’d benefit by the useful information and being able to interact with other people who share the same interest
I think I’d help contribute what I’ve learned from my P R Writing class and help others with advice on P R basics.
* PR Open Mic is beneficial because it allows Public Relations Professionals to discuss their personal trials and triumphs in the PR career field. This especially helps me as a student, because I can communicate and network with PR’s in the work force.
* Phil Gomes, James Grunig, Robert French
* I think I could benefit from PR Open Mic through the connections it allows with PR Professionals in the work force. I could discuss the non-profit sector with PRs who are already in the field so that I know what to expect or what to do to better prepare myself.
*I could contribute my experiences as a college student and offer advice and help to any other students studying Public Relations.
OpenMic provides a way for students, teachers and practitioners to communinicate with one another. Students and new practitioners can ask questions to faculty and to practitioners with experience. Phil Gomes even has a “Ask Phil” section.

I think I could benefit from OpenMic by asking questions that I have about the practitioners world. Also I could get my blog out there and bring in more readers.
I could contribute ideas and opinions to other peoples blog and discussions and even begin my own.
Phil Gomes, James Grunig, Robert French
I think the most beneficial parts of this website are the forum, events, and videos sections. The forum is a great place to share ideas with other PR practitioners. Events is a good way to find out about dfferent PR conferences, and get the word out about them. Videos I think are really cool because it shows examples of good and bad releases, and different tips that people have come up with in a visual way.
Some of the big name Practitioners using PROpenMic are Phil Gomes, Paull Young, James Grunig, and Robert French.
I think I could benefit from PROpenMic because it is a great way to network and get in contact with practitioners who have been in the business for a long time and can give good advice! I think I could contribute to PROpenMic because I can give a student’s perspective. When I graduate I can discuss what I wish I had been taught in school, entry level PR jobs, and anything else that people might have forgotten about after having been in the field so long!
