Educator of the Year

In 2008, PRAM began recognizing outstanding professional educator members through its Educator of the Year award.

PRAM established this award to recognize an educator who has taught public relations or a closely-related discipline and who has demonstrated a commitment to advance the profession of public relations. Full-time faculty members teaching in a public relations/journalism/communication curriculum, at any rank, who are members of the Public Relations Association of Mississippi are eligible for nomination.
