The Public Relations Campaigns course (STCM 430-03) is launching a partnership with the Office of Greek Life. Led by Dr. Martina Santia, this course uses an agency-team approach, where students pick a real client with a campus presence to develop and implement a full public relations campaign to achieve the client’s communication and organizational goals. The team decided to partner with the Office of Greek Life to raise awareness and understanding on the mission and positive impact of Greek Life at Montclair State University. Two teams of students are working on media strategies through targeted posts across social platforms. 

Through primary and secondary research, the SCM team will gain insights into the Montclair community’s perception about Greek Life. This research will guide the campaign, which will involve social media engagement and events to promote an understanding of Greek Life’s unique and inclusive community. To aid in the evaluation of the campaign, the SCM team kindly asks any current Montclair State University students to take this survey.
