But there\u2019s one thing that we love more \u2014 social media. A Twitter chat combines both because it allows you to build your network, engage in conversation and (most importantly) have fun. To participate you don\u2019t even have to leave the comfort of your dorm room or change out of your pajamas.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">PRSSA will host its first Twitter chat as we kick-off the academic year with <a href=\"http:\/\/prssa.prsa.org\/about\/Advocacy\/Diversity\/index.html\">Diversity Month.<\/a> \u00a0For those who are new to the Twitter chat scene, it\u2019s a way for members from all across the nation to connect at the same time while discussing topics relevant to our industry. It\u2019s for everyone, it\u2019s free and it\u2019s an opportunity to digitally meet new professionals like yourself.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>How to Participate:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">1. Log in to<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/\"> Twitter<\/a><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">2. Go to<a href=\"http:\/\/tweetchat.com\/\"> Tweetchat.com<\/a> when you\u2019re ready to join the conversation<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">3. Enter \u201cPRDiversity\u201d in the search box. This is the hashtag we will be using for every tweet as we celebrate PRSA and PRSSA Diversity Month.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">4. The Twitter feed will display all tweets using the registered hashtag (#PRDiversity) and you\u2019ve officially become part of the chat. Enter any tweet you wish to post in the top box. Don\u2019t worry about adding #PRDiversity at the end \u2014 Tweetchat does it for you automatically.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">If you can\u2019t see the box, but can see the feed, click \u201csign in\u201d at the top right corner and click \u201callow\u201d to allow Tweetchat to connect to Twitter. Tweets will take a minute to show up once you click \u201ctweet.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Let the Fun Begin:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">This year\u2019s first Twitter chat is Tuesday, August 25, 2015 at 9 p.m. EDT.
