We're very proud of you and happy for your new adventure. You'll have a fun and learn a great deal. Enjoy it. The t-shirt idea is sweet - and funny. Thanks. You're right that everyone in the department will want one ... not the t-shirt - the raise. ;) Take care and don't forget us down here in Auburn. We'll miss you. Thank you, Erin. We’re very proud of you and happy for your new adventure.

You’ll have a fun and learn a great deal. Enjoy it.

The t-shirt idea is sweet – and funny. Thanks. You’re right that everyone in the department will want one … not the t-shirt – the raise. ;)

Take care and don’t forget us down here in Auburn. We’ll miss you.

Many thanks? Thanks a million? I think I'll just make a t-shirt that says "Robert French deserves a raise" and parade around Tichenor in it. Yeah ... Oh, but then everyone will want one. Better make several ... Somehow, “thank you” just doesn’t cut it. Many thanks? Thanks a million?

All of these examples help me realize that we are on the right path. Our program still needs to grow and adapt, but seeing our students succeed in a variety of practices does provide fuel to our personal fires. I am also not too jaded to fail in realizing that all the contacts and friends we have made in the online PR world are due to these students. Without the students, I'm quite certain that Marcomblog would not exist, for example. I would not likely find people too interested in my blog, either. That's just my little personal transparency statement. I'm proud of them and appreciate them, too. I won't hesitate to wave the flag again in the future. Thank you both for your kind comments. Richard and Dee, thank you very much.

Every university program has professors who are proud of their departing students. Not every university program is innovative and prepares their students for the "real" marketplace. By leading your classes into the world of online PR, you've truly equipped them to be more qualified in some cases than industry veterans. You should be proud and you deserve to have students like Erin and others out there representing your efforts at Auburn. Robert,
