OXFORD, Miss. \u2013 Robin Street, lecturer in the University of Mississippi’s Meek School of Journalism and New Media who coordinates the school\u2019s PR emphasis, was presented the Professional Achievement Award by the Public Relations Association of Mississippi.<\/p>\n

The award, given to one professional yearly, is the association\u2019s top honor. It was presented to Street April 25 at a ceremony in Hattiesburg by PRAM President Shannon Coker. Recipients \u201cembody the highest degree of professionalism, are committed to advancing the profession and have outstanding achievements in the practice of public relations,\u201d according to PRAM.<\/p>\n

Street was previously named PRAM\u2019s Educator of the Year, and it is rare for an educator to be honored in the professional category. However, judges selected Street for her continued involvement in the profession, the multiple awards her work has won, and her commitment to ethics and diversity, according to Tara Burcham, PRAM vice president for awards.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe judges said she is an inspiration to her students and other professionals,\u201d Burcham said. \u201cThey also noted that her commitment to the field of PR is unparalleled.\u201d<\/p>\n

Multiple former students who are now PR professionals joined in supporting Street\u2019s nomination.<\/p>\n

Former student Alex May-Sealey wrote,\u201dHer career achievements speak for themselves, but it is her enthusiasm, energy and ideas that truly make her shine as an inspiration to all. Robin is an excellent mentor and is consistently a favorite among her students and colleagues.\u201d<\/p>\n

Other student statements of support included, \u201c(T)he epitome of a public relations professional.\u201d \u201cTrains the next generation of PR professionals while being one of the best the profession has to offer.\u201d \u201cA woman of integrity, keen intelligence, responsibility, calm confidence and compassion.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAlthough Ms. Street is winning this award for one year, she has practiced quality public relations for decades,\u201d said H. Will Norton Jr., professor and dean of the\u00a0journalism school.<\/p>\n

Street\u2019s previous awards include a Silver Anvil Award of Excellence from the Public Relations Society of America, the highest award given for PR work, and more than 30 awards in the PRAM Prism and the Southern Public Relations Lantern competitions. Her work previously won \u201cBest in Show\u201d from in both the Prism and Lantern competitions and twice won \u201cJudges Choice\u201d in the Prisms.<\/p>\n

As the PRAM winner, Street now becomes Mississippi\u2019s nominee for the SPRF multi-state competition.<\/p>\n
