On Wednesday, November 5, 2008, the Auburn University PR program will officially launch this new social networking site, Auburn PR :: War Eagle!

The site, or WarEage.me, was created in the summer of 2008 by Alana Wells, Sherry Namburi, Miles Duncan, Brett Pohlman, Lindsay McCormick and Whitney West as part of a class project in their Auburn University PR Campaigns class.

This new opportunity allows Auburn PR students and alumni from the Department of Communication and Journalism to network, list job and internship opportunities, provide insight to help others in the Auburn PR community and build strong relationships with peers, teachers and alumni.

This private website requires members sign up and create a personal profile page. After creating a profile, members can add photos, videos, events, groups, blogs and notes about themselves.

Members may also invite other PR students, alumni and faculty to join this site. The goal for the site is to get as many as 800 past and present PR students involved, in the hopes of creating a large community for Auburn PR students to share ideas and advice.

While the site is still brand new, members are encouraged to offer feedback and suggestions to the creators of the site.
