Assistant Professor Feistman to receive PRSA education award

Assistant Professor Gregg Feistman, STRC, will be this year’s recipient of the Philadelphia Public Relations Society of America’s Anthony Fulginiti Award for Commitment to Education.

The award will be given the night of Dec. 7 at the Philadelphia chapter’s annual Pepperpot Awards for the best public relations campaigns of the year.

The award is named after Professor Tony Fulginiti who, in 1976, established a PRSSA chapter at Rowan University, wanting his public relations students to learn and grow in a professional setting and establish Rowan as a key institution in the public relations realm. This chapter is now one of the most successful in the country.
The Anthony Fulginiti Award was established to honor a public relations professional who shares Fulginiti’s commitment to the future of public relations. Each year, one person is honored who excels in education, either through their mentoring/teaching, their efforts to help shape the careers of future PR professionals, or their contributions to PRSSA.
