The purpose of the program is to establish a working relationship between
students and professionals.
The organization promotes a high level of work ethics,
encourages higher education by holding workshops on a variety of
communication topics and providing APR accreditation, and offers
networking opportunities.
There are over 7,000 PRSSA members involved on nearly 250
campuses nationwide. In the Western New York area,
Buffalo State College
