The event we\u2019ve all been anxiously waiting for is just a few days away and the PRSSA 2010 National Conference Committee is looking forward to welcoming you to Washington, D.C.<\/p>\n
Here are a few things to consider when packing and preparing for this year\u2019s Conference.<\/p>\n
Expectations<\/strong> <\/em><\/p>\n It is difficult to know what to expect at National Conference unless you\u2019ve attended a National event before. Think of the public relations events you\u2019ve had at your Chapter, but add 1,000 enthusiastic, young professionals and spread the fun over five days. Just when you think it couldn\u2019t get any better, you and your PRSSA friends get to explore Washington, D.C., after the sessions have ended for the day.<\/p>\n Be mindful of some of the norms around the District. Possibly the most important is custom is to stand on the right side of the escalator, single file. If you don\u2019t believe me watch this video<\/a>. If you want to plan your metro trip or look up general tours use Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority<\/a> or HopStop<\/a>.<\/p>\n What to Bring<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/em><\/p>\n How to Prepare<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/em><\/p>\n Networking Tips<\/strong><\/p>\n Feel free to ask the National Committee, National Conference Committee or Conference volunteers any questions that you have about Conference or Washington, D.C. Get ready to spend five packed days discussing the most relevant aspects of public relations with like-minded students in the nation\u2019s capital.<\/p>\n We are counting the days until you join us for the PRSSA 2010 National Conference.<\/p>\n\n
