Kristen Morrison, ‘09

former Print Sales Manager currently: Part Owner/Account Manager at Red Six Media

Starting my career with LSU Student Media was one of the best decisions I could have made. Not only did I get real world experience, but I also developed many relationships with clients and brands that continue to help me today. Student Media also taught me a valuable lesson in time management skills. If you succeed in having a job like this while also being a full-time student, the real world will be much easier for you to dive into.

former Broadcast Sales Manager currently: Jewelry & Watch Manager, Town&Country magazine

My 3 years in Student Media Advertising were priceless. School taught me a great deal, but the experience I got at LSU Student Media was the most valuable piece of my portfolio and college career. I can honestly say it got me where I am today. I gained 3 years of real world experience and a client base that I was able to carry along with me after graduation. It was challenging, but also fun and rewarding and well-worth my time. I will always be grateful for the experience.

John David Robbins, ‘07

former Print Sales Representative currently: Creative Director for RunningWithHeels.com

Working at Student Media gave me the tools and experience I needed to be successful and well prepared for my current job. Having hands-on experience with all facets of the media industry has allowed me to have a competitive advantage over most colleagues my age in the industry. My involvement with student media has been one of the best investments I have made for my future.

The skills I developed while serving as the Broadcast Sales Manager set me apart from all the other applicants while applying for jobs after graduation. While at LSU Student Media, I was trained to build and maintain local and national client relationships through weekly client meetings, media pitch presentations and by developing various integrated marketing packages. My time at LSU Student Media definitely provided the foundation for my future in the media industry and played a huge part while applying for my current position at Town&Country magazine!

Get the fast track to an awesome career with Student Media Advertising.
