Culpwrit

PR major Chelsea Journee won the Culpwrit Award at this week’s program honoring outstanding achievement by 26 staffers at Lindsey + Asp, University of Oklahoma’s award-winning student-run agency.

Chelsea is an account lead at the impressive PR/ad agency, and she recently was elected OU PRSSA Chapter President for the fall term. She graduates in December.

“Chelsea and her team have strategically generated content for the Marriott Hotel and Conference Center at the National Center for Employee Development to help with their marketing efforts,” said Robert Pritchard, APR, Fellow PRSA, who is faculty advisor for Lindsey + Asp. “Along the way, she’s made sure to make her team better by giving them opportunities to step out of their comfort zones and tackle new challenges.”

Named after this blog, the Culpwrit Award has been awarded each of the past nine years of the program. Recognizing multi-dimensional young PR professionals who have demonstrated a commitment to teach and mentor others, the award includes first-year PRSA membership upon graduation.
