From Future Camp to Summer Camp!

Today, social media class was unlike any other. We spent the class at Future Camp! We discussed how social media can add value to our public relations careers.

It had a bit of a rocky start but once we split up into our desired PR industries it was actually quite interesting. My agency group determined that consistancy and reaching out to potential employers is a great way to use social media to help your further career.

Future Camp turned comedic when we took a picture of my friend Andrew's rattail who he coveniently name "Ryan the Rattail." Ryan got a little frisky with Caterina's bun.. here is evidence.We determined that he should aspire to grow his rattail out to match this lovely gentlmen's rattail:

Now, back to business.. we duscussed how both sections of the Humber PR program can create a stronger bond. We concluded that activities through out the summer will be a good opportunity to develop good relationships with our fellow PR students. White water rafting, Canada's Wonderland, cottaging and camping were all ideas for our "summer camp" adventures.

here are the twitter links for the other students in my class who are interested in agency work:
