The PR Dog is a personal blog by Dr. Brenda J. Wrigley, an associate professor and chair of the Department of Public Relations at Syracuse University's S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications. The views expressed are her own and do not necessarily represent the views of Syracuse University. The posts give Dr. Wrigley's views on current events, societal trends and life in general. The blog is also the work of her PR Assistant, Holly.

Faculty Friends
During my five years teaching at Michigan State University, I worked for part of that time with Dr. Theresa Mastin, who earned her Ph.D. at MSU and then left to teach elsewhere for a few years before coming back.
She and I both taught PR in what was then the Department of Advertising. (Now, Public Relations has been added to the department name.)
Theresa is a terrific teacher, and is actively involved in research in public health and AIDS.
She is leaving soon for two weeks in Kenya to conduct some of this important work.
Dr. Mastin is also one of the five professors (including yours truly) selected for the Plank Center for Leadership Educators Program. She is interning at Ketchum here in Chicago.
It's always fun to catch up with friends. Theresa is one of our favorites from our days in Michigan.
