It’s a Bird, It’s a Plane—No It’s FAMU’s Public Relations!

Sometimes I feel like we’re suppose to be a team of superheroes—only instead of being faster than a locomotive and able to jump buildings in a single bound, we disseminate information to thousands of students quicker than a blink of an eye.

By we, I mean the media relations team at Florida A&M University’s Office of Public Affairs: Sharon Saunders, chief of communications; Pamela Tolson, director of media relations and Angel Suri, information and communication specialist.

I remember a little story Saunders told me a story on my first day on the job.

“At the president’s first student forum a young lady stood up,” Saunders probed. “She said students aren’t aware of what’s going on. That young lady told us she didn’t know about the forum until the last minute.”

That’s we’re we come in.

The Office of Public Affairs has recognized that communication between administration and students needs improvement, and we’re doing something about it. The RattlerWIRE News Blog is here to save the day! This blog was designed to keep YOU, the student, informed on what’s going on at FAMU.

We’ll be covering every nook and cranny of the institution: daily FAMU news, sports and culture coverage, answers to your questions on things from academic life, student government, Greek life, financial aid and alumni will ALL be on RattlerWIRE.

Oh, and by the way, if you happen to be a rattled Rattler, we have your solutions.
If there happens to be ANY inquiries, just leave us a comment. We’ll be sure to answer it. While we’re at it, we might just even blog about the subject itself!
