What's Going On

By Monique Boucher, PR B Tech graduate

There is a whole lot going on in the PRM department at the moment. Yes the timetable changed (you can find it here) but more exciting news includes the fact that there is just a week left to enter the ‘MODERN DAY LIVING’ PHOTOGRAPHY COMPETITION. All CPUT students are invited to enter and stand the chance to a Nikon D40 Camera valued at R 4,895.00 and Camera Training software kit to the value of R850 (sponsored by ORMS Pro Photo Warehouse).

All you have to do is capture modern day life and submit your original photographs in an A4-size and on CD to the Public Relations Management Office in the Admin Building, 2.400, on the Cape Town campus. Look for the entries post box. Entries close on April, 30 so you have a week left. Find more information here. Happy snapping shutterbugs!

In planning is the SQUARE CONFERENCE: ON TECHNOLOGY (ONLINE) , the 11th Annual CPUT conference to be held in August. Finalists for the ‘MODERN DAY LIVING’ PHOTOGRAPHY COMPETITION will be displayed and the winner announced at the conference. For more information, visit www.squareconference.wordpress.com

We are looking for VOLUTEERS to help at the conference, see the pervious post here for more information or email Jade Snyman, conference coordinator, at snymanja@cput.ac.za

Thank you to all of you that responded to the BEST STUDENT WORK EXHIBITION post. It has been decided that this will take place along with HeadSpace, the end of year Faculty of Informatics and Design exhibition. This gives you more time to put together your portfolios and plan how you could display your work. We are thinking of setting up a stand at this year’s Square Conference so keep your eyes on PR Chatbox, our official PRM blog.
