From Your Student Advisory Board: Maddy Pilgrim
Hi fellow School of Communication students! My name is Maddy Pilgrim and I am currently in my third year at Chapman with a double major in Communication Studies and Political Science and a minor in LGBTQ Studies. With desires to enact social change and engage in advocacy efforts now and in my future career, I am hoping my Communication Studies major compliments both my Political Science major and LGBTQ Studies minor to prepare me for a career in law and public policy. Communication Studies has improved my public speaking and presentation skills, as well as my ability to work effectively in group settings, my writing and analytical skills, and my leadership abilities. I am so excited to be serving on the School of Communication Advisory Board and working to address your needs and strengthen the SoC!

How to Market a City: An Inside Perspective on Attracting Investment and Talent to a City
Cities all around the globe spend millions of dollars to market the assets of their community to attract investment, talent and tourists. This class will focus on a broad range of marketing strategies that cities implement to attract both companies (investment) and a workforce (talent) ranging from public relations, to research, to digital advertising, to branding, to websites, to special events. We’ll take a behind the scenes look at how a city determines the key messages that will most resonate with its target audiences, and how a city uses various marketing techniques to communicate those key messages. This class will include an interactive activity to allow the students to put into practice a few city marketing techniques.
Julie Curtin is the President of Economic Development Practice at DCI in Denver. She is a frequent speaker for cities, regions, states and the International Economic Development Council (IEDC) on the topics of economic development marketing, talent attraction, social media and public relations.
