Department of Communication and Journalism Alumni Survey
Please take part in our alumni survey. This survey is for departmental
annual assessment purposes. It will be valuable as Auburn undergoes
its reaccreditation review by the Southern Association of Colleges
and Schools and by the Accrediting Council on Education in Journalism
and Mass Communications. In addition, it will help the department
improve the education of its majors. If you wish, you may fill out
this survey online.

- Even though my experience at Auburn and in the following few years after is based in print journalist, not so oddly enough, I have become a public relations professional. I am currently enjoying work as the director of public affairs and external relations at Loyola University New Orleans. After graduation, I moved to Atlanta where I landed a job at CNN in the marketing division. Two years later, I moved back into newswriting. (I had written for The Plainsman and The Opelika-Auburn News while in school.) Other newspapers I've worked for since are The Alexander City Outlook, The Sun Herald and The Columbus Ledger-Enquirer. In 1998, I got married and moved to Spartanburg, SC where I made the transition from journalism to PR. There I became the public relations manager for Spartanburg Regional Healthcare System and enjoyed a good experience in developing healthcare marketing skills. A divorce and and move later, I was in Charleston, SC working in the marketing department at the Medical University of South Carolina. I eventually broke out of healthcare marketing to launch a private consulting business, M Communications. A couple of years into that, Katrina hits the LA and MS coast and my family's world is turned upside down. The need to be closer to home was there. Loyola, still suffering staffing issues due to Katrina's massive impact, needed a new director of public relations. So, my path has brought me to the Gulf Coast region, much to my joy. I am proud to call New Orleans my home and to be part of its renewal, and I am happy to once more be near my native Mississippi coast.
