Social Media Club Birmingham
Tuesday, October 7 (11:30 AM - 1:00 PM)

Register now for this special meeting. Space is limited!

The October 2008 meeting of the Social Media Club Birmingham will feature Robert French. Robert teaches public relations at Auburn University. He has over 25 years of experience in public relations, broadcasting and university administration.

Robert became interested in social media for the benefit of his students. He saw the change in PR coming and got in early.

Social media has proven to be a powerful educational, networking and mentoring path for Auburn students. They have landed interviews and jobs with the top public relations, marketing and advertising firms in the world, in part, because of their class social media experiences. Auburn graduates are now actively weaving social media into PR practice for governors, state agencies, PR/marketing agencies, corporations, nonprofits and churches.

Robert is a Founding Fellow of SNCR, the Society for New Communication Research. Recently honored with inclusion in PR Week's 2008 Editors' Choice list, Robert has been interviewed by the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, Inc. magazine and many other news organizations

Bring your own lunch. Networking starts at 11:30, presentation at Noon.
