Let’s Talk About My Awesome Classmates
Inspired by our New Media for PR class, a few of my fellow students have decided to start blogging. I wanted to share their endeavors with my friends on the Web so you could get a chance to see what my classmates are doing. Here’s the rundown:
Maria Thurrell: Maria has such sparkle. She writes for On the PRowl with me, but Maria started her own personal blog, ThruMyGreenEyes. On her blog, she talks about her foray into new media and public relations, and finding a voice in this big, crazy world.
Vanessa Gerard: Vanessa is a smart, savvy, social girl who just so happens to be a phenomenal ballroom dancer. Her blog, Anything that Glitters, talks about her perspectives on ballroom competitions, including the always-popular TV show, Dancing with the Stars.
Danielle Katz: Danielle is a theater buff, and she’s passionate about music and pop culture. Danielle is enthusiastic about everything she does, and her blog, Window by Window, showcases her thoughts on the intersection of social media and entertainment.
Kera Coyer: Kera is very thoughtful. She’s the kind of girl who, when she says something in class, people write it down. Her blog, Interconnection, is a reflective look at social media and social networking issues on the Web and in the news.
Elise Kohen: Elise is always smiling, asking new questions and giving fresh insights in class. Elise’s blog, The Scoop Gal, shows off her excitement about new campaigns and branding that’s happening on the Web.
Stephanie Shih: Stephanie is one hell of a PR student, and she has an interest in politics. Her blog, Exercise Your Right, discusses perspectives on the 2008 election and how transparency and authenticity are playing in politics like never before.
Whaddaya think, friends?

You are awesome, Amanda!
Just wanted to thank you for this shout out and ALL of your guidance and help this semester.
You are my new media SUPERSTAR.
Hi,
I tried to leave a comment on Elise’s blog, but couldn’t.
She doesn’t allow comments, and Blogger only lets you log in with a Blogger account now… and my blog’s not on blogger.
Ho hum.

Now that’s what I call walking the walk Amanda. Thanks for practicing what we preach.
Q
If you are reading this blog you already know that Amanda is amazing. I give her full credit for turning me into the new media junkie that I am.
Class, and life, would not be the same without Amanda.
For anyone who is considering hiring her, DO IT! Don’t let the chance to have this energetic, creative, bubbly young woman on your team slip through your fingers.
Thanks for being so wonderful Amanda!
Maria
Oh, hush. You’re all awesome and the world should know it :D
Amanda + Vanessa = my favorite combination of new and old friends. We should get drinks together sometime!
Amanda,
you are great and a true new media guru :) Mark can now successfully comment on my blog :)
Amanda / Elise,
Indeed I can - and indeed I have (on Elise’s article about personal branding.)
Thanks for your help in getting it sorted.
Good luck to both of you in your blogging careers - I’m following both of your blogs in Google Reader!
