PR 118 - Public Relations and PersuasionSemester Hours: 3
Periodically
This course will analyze how ideas and behaviors become popular and spread.

Students will learn a range of tactics and phenomena including the characteristics that make ideas influential, memorable, and viral and how public relations professionals capitalize on this knowledge to meet their goals. We will assess the ethics and social implications of the use of such strategies.
