Arthur W. Page Society, IPR Announce Corporate Communication Case Competition
By James O'Rourke, University of Notre Dame For the twelfth consecutive year, the Arthur W. Page Society and the Institute for Public Relations have announced their collaborative partnership to sponsor student-written case studies in corporate communication.
This year's competition, sure to draw hundreds of students from across the nation and around the globe, will encourage those studying both business and communication, to identify, think critically about, and research subjects that are of widespread public interest.
Awards are given in two categories: Communication and Journalism Schools, and Business Schools. Additionally, the case judged to be "best in show" is awarded the competition's Grand Prize. Cash prizes are funded by AWPS and IPR for the student authors and for their faculty sponsors.
Your support for the Institute helps fund this unique and rewarding challenge for college students who will someday (soon) be our colleagues and co-workers.
