Are You a UWG Student Interested in Sports Communications?


The Atlanta Hawks will host Georgia-area college students for its annual “College

Media Day” Sunday, March 28 (3:30 p.m. tipoff) during the Hawks’ home game against

the Indiana Pacers. The “College Media Day” program invites university students

interested in sports communications to experience an NBA game as a professional

journalist, interact with Hawks staff members, sportswriters and broadcasters and get a

first-hand look at what goes on behind the scenes at an NBA game.

Selected students will participate in Q & A sessions with several members of

print, electronic and broadcast media outlets, have dinner in the press room, watch the

game from media seating and attend the postgame press conference with Hawks head

coach Mike Woodson. Additionally, participants will have access to game notes, box

scores, and other media materials.

Students interested in pursuing a career in sports communications should not

miss this opportunity to gain experience, build their resumes and make professional

contacts.

Those interested should email your name, phone number and a brief account of

your experience/aspirations in the sports communication field to Reginald King and

Lauren Harper by Monday, March 22 (please note that participation is limited).
