For recent grads, nothing is more valuable on a public relations resume than real-world experience. The UO School of Journalism and Communication offers a number of opportunities for students to get engaged in their chosen fields and build that resume. As someone who is very driven, I was eager to get as involved as possible. That is how I came across Allen Hall Public Relations (AHPR).
Growing up, making videos was always the hobby I was most passionate about. I always sought out new methods of production to get more advanced, aesthetically pleasing shots.

I heard about a student club called DuckTV during the first week of my freshman fall term at the UO School of Journalism and Communication. DuckTV is the student-run television network, with news, sports, and creative shows. A part of me had always had an interest in being a newscaster, so I decided that I would audition.
