"I'm Linzi Keating. I'm a second-year Public Relations student at Durham College. I chose Public Relations because I knew a couple of girls that took the program before me. They had already graduated and said that it was an awesome program - very hands-on. I'm very much a people person so I thought it would be a good choice."
"I've learned many things in this program, Public Relations. We multi-task and we learn to work in teams as group work is a big thing. I would say my favourite course is probably Freelance Writing in second year, second semester. The teacher is awesome. He is very helpful, very informative."
"A lot of people don't know what Public Relations is until you explain everything that you could do - you could design magazines, you can work for a music company, you can be an event planner. There are so many aspects you could go into that interest people a lot more instead of taking one course and that being the only thing that they do. You receive a laptop, which is a Macintosh. We receive that at the beginning of first year. It has all the programs installed that you need and more actually. There is PhotoShop, Word, Dreamweaver - everything pretty much. It's awesome."
