Did you have a mentor that helped guide you into the PR/business world after college? Well it’s time to pay them back.

Marisa Staker, the new president of Public Relations Student Society of America (PRSSA) at San Jose State, has launched a mentor program to match students with professionals, facilitating career development and better preparing students to enter the workforce.

As the President of the Silicon Valley Chapter of PRSA, I strongly encourage all PR and marketing communications practioners to help out.
