CJC PRSSA Bateman Competition Team is Named One of the Top Three 2020 Finalists
The University of Florida College of Journalism and Communications Public Relations Student Society of America (PRSSA) Bateman Competition team has been named one of the top three finalists in the 2020 contest.
The CJC team, led by doctoral student Pamala Proverbs, was comprised of Public Relations seniors Sawyer Carlton, Erin France, Palak Patel, Ruth Rodriguez and Carly Rogers.
PRSSA partnered with the U.S. Census Bureau to create a challenge to develop and implement a comprehensive communication campaign that complements the current communication goals of the 2020 Census and the organization’s Integrated Communications Plan.
PRSSA received 57 entries from all over the country for the 2020 competition. Of these submissions, 14 entries received honorable mention and three were chosen as finalists to present their campaigns to a panel of judges on May 15. CJC will compete with DePaul University and High Point University for the top honor.
The Bateman Case Study Competition is PRSSA’s premier national case study competition for public relations students and provides an opportunity for students to apply classroom education and internship experiences to create and implement a full public relations campaign.
In the past decade, CJC received first place in both 2011 and 2015 and second place in 2012 and 2013.
