CW CAMPAIGN
RWU PRSSA decided to compete once again in the CW Campaign for the television show Vampire Diaries. Four students were chosen to participate: Samantha Hamilton (SR), MaryKate Burns (SR),Rachel Lawton (SR), and Jessica Saladamarco. This was an outstanding opportunity for these members to build their portfolio and to get national recognition for RWU PRSSA!
The CW asked students to build awareness among college students for one of television’s hottest shows, The Vampire Diaries, by implementing a public relations campaign on campus.

In 2009, they also placed third for a campaign they undertook for the CW television Station. |
