WHY DO PEOPLE THINK PR IS ALL ABOUT PARTYING?


                                         
Public Relations from my understanding entails the building and sustenance of a mutual long term relationship between an organisation and its stakeholders, it could also be regarded as reputation management from a different perspective.
Now, how that constitutes partying and clubbing is what I do not understand and as a matter of facts it baffles me.  I got into a discussion today at school with some IT students and they were of the opinion that, public relations students are idle people and party freaks.

Although, the impression they have about public relations may be as a result of the calibre of public relations students they come across. That goes on to illustrate how relevant it is to understand what you are doing and be able to defend it in public because, however you portray yourself out there will determine the impression people will have about the entire organisation or department you represent.
