It was a bittersweet ending to the semester as we held a ceremony to say goodbye to our seniors. The seniors received their PRSSA cords from the chapter for being an active member of  PRSSA for two years as they worked towards their degrees.

Tori Pratt served as PRSSA Chapter President during the 2023 - 2024 term. She is graduating with a Bachelors of Science in Public Relations with a minor in marketing. She has been involved in multiple other organizations on campus, including the Residential College Council as the Social Chair, Publicity Coordinator for Campus Lights, and Editor for Sigma Alpha Iota. 

"My favorite memory from being a part of this organization was the trip to Nashville we took last spring. When we were there, we visited Bauer Entertainment Marketing, and I fell in love with their work environment and eventually got an internship with them!"

After graduation, she plans on going into social media marketing. 

Grace Elder served as the Public Relations chair during the 2023 - 2024 term. She is graduating with a Bachelor's of Science in Advertising and a minor in Management. During her time at Murray State she participated in the Tri Sigma sorority as well as PRSSA. Her favorite part about PRSSA was our Networking in Nashville trip where PRSSA visited with alumni and heard about their experiences in the PR field. Upon graduating she will be seeking a position in Advertising and/or Public Relations. 

Emily Hudson served as the Recruitment chair during the 2023 - 2024 term. Emily is  graduating in May 2024 with a Bachloers of Science in Public Relations and a minor in psychology. 

"Being in PRSSA has been such a fun experience here at Murray State," Hudson said. “My favorite memory by far is when we got together with a bunch of other clubs within the JMC department and had a trivia night.”

 After graduation, she will be starting the Management Trainee program with Enterprise Mobility in Evansville, IN. 

"Thank you PRSSA for all the fun times!!"

Here's to our seniors!!
