I <3 Annenberg Grad School

My world was rocked today.

I had the honor of attending Annual Prospective Graduate Student Visit Day program at USC Annenberg.

Here's why I am going:

1. I <3 PR, but I'm not sure which area would be my focus.

2. Dean Ernest Wilson III.  He set the tone for the entire program: He said that if you'd like to know the future, you should invent it--Annenberg is all about the convergence of communication media... http://annenberg.usc.edu/Faculty/Communication/WilsonE.aspx

3. The Strategic PR Program.  They encourage that we take classes in anything we're interested in... USC has premiere schools of pretty much everything.

4. Annenberg is diverse:  age-wise, ethnicity-wise, gender-wise, and interest-wise.  They have groundbreaking programs for broadcast journalism, foreign policy public communication, entertainment PR, corporate PR, etc...

5. It's in LA... home of my church, Agape International.

6. I'd get a good deal on season tickets to the Trojan games!
