PR Strategic Plan for College of Social Science and Communication (CSSC)
I was the team captain for this strategic plan in the semester-long Capstone class.
The strategic plan was created to help CSSC with its goal of increasing opportunities for student success. It had confronted affinity issues common to colleges on university campuses. Traditionally, colleges have found it difficult to connect with students who are disinterested or unaware of college-level opportunities. The CSSC wanted to overcome these historical barriers and create strong, lasting relationships with all of its students.
