#ufprchat was modeled after other well-known Twitter chats, such as #journchat, #custserv, etc. It is a way for University of Florida College of Journalism and Communications students and alumni to network and interact while discussing: the use of social media as a public relations tool, job searches, career tips and more.
The first #ufprchat was initiated and led by @msgatoradr and @TravelPRgirl. The chat, moderated by @msgatoradr, took place on Tuesday, March 23, 2010 and received outstanding feedback from Gator students and professionals across the country. Approximately 70 people contributed 577 tweets with the #ufprchat hashtag. You can track the #ufprchat hashtag at WThashtag.com.
This Web site was created in conjunction with #ufprchat so that followers may review transcripts, job posts for Gators by Gators and other useful, industry-related information.
