PRSSA student leaders attend PRSA ICON 2026 in Orlando
Four student leaders from the Mississippi State University Public Relations Student Society of America chapter attended PRSA ICON 2026, held in Orlando, Florida. Kinsley Hunter, Molly Burch, Halle Holman, and Shelby Luquet represented Mississippi State University at the national conference, accompanied by chapter co-advisor Zahed Arman.
During the conference, students participated in professional development sessions, networking opportunities and discussions with public relations practitioners and industry leaders from across the country. PRSA ICON provided an opportunity for the student leaders to explore emerging trends in public relations, gain insights into industry practices and strengthen their professional skills while connecting with fellow students and communication professionals.
The experience also allowed the PRSSA chapter leaders to bring valuable knowledge, professional connections and new perspectives back to Mississippi State University. Their participation reflects the chapter's commitment to preparing future public relations professionals through experiential learning, leadership development and engagement with the broader public relations community.
