Full Name: Allison Brookes

Allison Brookes, PRSSA president

Major: Public Relations

PRSSA Title: Current President, Former VP of Fundraising

Hometown: East Liverpool, Ohio

What are your plans after graduating: Work for an agency and learn the ropes of being a young professional.

Favorite thing you like about Kent State: The people I have met and the life-long friends I’ve gained really made a difference in my time at Kent State.

What you think you will miss most about Kent State: I’ll miss the professors and seeing my friends in the halls of Franklin.

Favorite PRSSA memory: Going to National Conference in Washington D.C. last year. It was such a fun conference and itwas a great bonding experience!

Interesting fact about yourself: I’m engaged and will be getting married next October.

What advice would you give someone that you wish you have known as a freshman: I would tell them to not be afraid to get involved. Once you get involved with committees and start to get your name out there, the networking opportunities you’ll receive will amaze you. When professors tell you “It’s all about who you know,” listen to them, because it’s definitely true.

On behalf of PRSSA Kent we would like to thank you Allison for everything you have done. We all wish you the best of luck and congratulations on graduating. Allison will be graduating from Kent State University this December.

Don’t forget about our last meeting of the year this Weds. in Franklin Hall room 213 at 7:30 p.m. Come and enjoy the end of the year party.
