Arts and Sciences Student Council has once again named Advertising Club the Outstanding Club of the Year! The award is based off of 4 areas including: purpose of club, club membership, activities/meetings and greatest achievement of the year. With AdClub being the only on-campus club to offer a Foundation scholarship we were a head above the other applicants! Congratulations members because we could not have done it without you!
The most important meeting for AdClub members is here! Who do you want representing AdClub next year? Come and voice your opinion and hear candidate speeches next Wednesday at Hideaway Pizza at 7pm. AdClub is only as good as its leadership so come and vote!
Bob Hammack, founder of New West Group, will be coming to speak to AdClub on Wednesday. He is an experienced professional on both account services and creative. New West Group currently are in charge of accounts such as Chesapeake Energy Corporation, Harold’s, OKC Blazers, and Colonial Florists to name a few. Come and listen to a big name in the ad industry speak about even bigger ideas! The meeting will be held in JB 101 at 7pm.
To receive AdClub Member of the Year (AMOY), meeting attendance numbers for non-leaders who have participated the most this semester will be totaled and, if the AdClub Member of the Fall Semester is one of them, generally this person will be chosen for AMOY.
For Faculty Member of the Year (FMOY), ballots will be distributed through some Journalism classes, Advertising Club Executive Board will tally them to see which faculty member received the most votes. In the six years AdClub has presented this award, Professors Noble and Sowell have won all but one year.
Both awards will be announced at the AdClub officer elections on April 6. Good luck!
2007-2008 ended with a record 164 members! That number puts OSU AdClub in the running for national membership awards with American Advertising Federation. That number also reverses a declining trend over the last two years with memberships of 147 and 136 respectively. So great job executive team, especially our Vice President of Membership, Lindsey Mosteller!
