So it's been a while since I last posted so here's an update on my life. I just got back from Washington, D.C. on Saturday night. I had the opportunity to go there with all of the senior public relations and print journalism majors. We were there for five days, and it was such an amazing time! The main purpose of the trip was to work with the American Red Cross to take their disaster public affairs course. It was a great learning experience because we learned how to correctly respond if their ever was a disaster in the area where we lived. We also learned about some of the other facets of the communication department at the Red Cross.
We also had the chance to take a tour of the Washington Post, which is one of my favorite newespapers so it definitely was a highlight of the trip for me. It was so fascinating to see how one of the nation's top newspapers is put together and to see all of the reporters and editors at work. We also had a tour of the capital with one of Harding's alumni. That was a neat experience because I got to see the place where some of the most important decisions of our nation are made. The trip was a great experience, but I was definitely exhausted when I got back. I'm still trying to recover from the long days and the amount of walking I did while I was there.
This week has just been crazy though because I'm trying to make up all the classes I missed this week. But a plus is that the yearbooks are finally here!!!! They are so beautiful, and I can't wait for everyone to get them and read and see them. Well I guess that's it for me here. I have to apply for some jobs now because I'm moving to Dallas!! I'll talk to you all later.
