analyze existing challenges and opportunities with regards to public relations.

1. I need a idea selection and guidline. please summit first.

Students will select a local business or
organization (not a corporation or chain), and analyze existing challenges and
opportunities with regards to public relations.

Suggestions include, but are
not limited to: for-profit businesses such as local restaurants, shops, or
service providers as well as non-profit organizations like churches, schools,
community organizations, service organizations, military-affiliated
organizations, sports leagues, etc. Ask yourself: Where do I like to shop?
Where do I like to eat? What organizations am I (or my family members) involved
in? Choose something that has meaning to you, and that you will look forward to
learning more about.
