EURCA Sponsors Screening of "Orca: The Killer Whale"

EURCA is offering a viewing of the strangely enlightening film, "Orca: The Killer Whale" to all interested students and faculty of the College of Communication and Information.  The screening will be held on Thursday, February 28 at 5:15pm, in Room #208 of the Communications Building.  The screening is free of charge.

Made in the 1977, "Orca" has all the elements of a stunningly cheesy film from that highly creative and culturally rich era of the late 1970s. Featuring Richard Harris, Charlotte Rampling, and a very young Bo Derek, "Orca: The Killer Whale" explores the internal and external conflicts between a New England whaling village and animal rights advocates over the whales' right to exist without being hunted for food and other products. Actually, the movie is about a whale who gets really upset when his baby whale and wife whale are killed by fisherman, and then the daddy whale goes off on a killing spree in the village.  No, really, that is what the movie is about.

Oh, and we will answer any questions that students and faculty may have about the Exhibition of Undergraduate Research and Creative Achievement.

I look forward to seeing you all there.  Dan Haygood

1. Course pre-reqs are strictly enforced. You will be dropped from courses if you do not have the correct pre-reqs. If you have any doubt regarding your eligiblity to enroll in a certain class, ask your instructor.

2.

New York Trip Information

September 7, 2006

Dear UT Ad Club Members and UT Ad Majors:

Get a firsthand look at the New York advertising community this January by participating in the 15th annual UT AD Club New York Agency/Media trip. This year's trip is set for Monday, January 15 through Saturday, January 20, 2007.

Agencies such as Young & Rubicam, Publicis and other advertising-related companies will give special presentations for us. They will include part of their new business pitch (including the agency reel), case studies, and their personnel directors will discuss what they look for in hiring. You will have the opportunity to meet UT grads who are currently working in the capital of the ad industry, and you'll have time to explore the city.

We can take 24 students this year. The trip is open to UT Ad Club members first.

Costs per person are estimated as follows:

Hotel and Airfare package............................................ $759.00

Meals - 6 days at $30/day .............................................. 180.00

Surface transportation (taxi, bus, subway) ...................... 60.00

TOTAL ESTIMATED COST . ...................................... $999.00*
(*Non-Ad Club Members add $50.00 and make separate check to UT/AAF Chapter)

To register for this trip you need to sign the bottom of this letter, fill out the attached form and return both to Dr.Haley with your payment of $759.00 for your hotel and airfare package by Noon, October 10, 2006. If all spots are not taken by Ad Club members, the remaining spots will be made available to non-members. Non-members will be put on a waiting list and unfilled spots will be filled based on the order in which non-members names appear on the list. Payment options are explained on the registration form. The rest of the money will be whatever you take with you in January. Trip reservations are first-come, first served. If we fill up before Oct. 10th, then we fill up! Put all the above in Dr. Haley’s hands!

Food estimate is an average. Reasonable coffee shops and fast food restaurants are close to the hotel. Entertainment, shopping, dining in "fine" restaurants are a matter of individual taste and will move the food cost and the pocket money to a higher amount. Room costs do not include phone calls or any extra room charges. These will be your responsibility and must be paid for prior to checkout by you.

Most appointments are within walking distance of the hotel. Transportation estimate tries to include free-time excursions, and should be on the high side, especially if you make use of the subway system.

Considering that the price includes five nights at a midtown Manhattan hotel, this is a reasonable cost for a trip that could be an invaluable investment in your career. Contact Dr. Haley (haley@utk.edu) for further information.

I understand that this is a voluntary extracurricular activity. In case of mishap, change in itinerary, trip cancellation or accident, neither the UT College of Communication and Information, The University of Tennessee, the School of Advertising and Public Relations, the UT Ad Club, nor the faculty escorts can be held responsible. Also, once paid, I understand that refunds cannot be given.

Publicis Internship

ANNOUNCING AN EXCLUSIVE INTERNSHIP OPPORTUNITY FOR UT ADVERTISING STUDENTS!

PUBLICIS USA will be offering a paid internship to a UT advertising student in either account management or account planning for this upcoming summer in the New York office.

PUBLICIS is a major multinational advertising agency, headquartered in Paris, France. The CEO of PUBLICIS USA is none other than UT advertising graduate Gill Duff. Mr. Duff or a designated PUBLICIS representative will conduct interviews this January during our annual NYC trip.

The internship is open to Juniors and Seniors (yes, even graduating seniors.) The HR people at PUBLICIS look on the internship program as an extended 8-week interview and will hire their interns when positions open up!

The PUBLICIS internship program is a very well-organized 8-week program that begins in June. You can read about the program at the PUBLICIS USA website, www.Publicis-usa.com. Then go to "people," then to "intern program." Last year, current UT advertising senior Ashley Butturini was selected for this program.

TO APPLY, HERE'S WHAT YOU NEED TO DO:

Prepare an application consisting of a one-page resume and a cover letter. The cover letter should specify the internship for which you are applying (account management or account planning). The letter should communicate why you want to work in advertising, why you want to work in account management or account planning, why your want to work at Publicis, and should communicate something about your personality.

Address the letter to: Mark Zangrilli, Publicis USA, 4 Herald Square, 950 6th Avenue, New York, NY 10001

TURN IN ALL MATERIALS TO DR. HALEY - Do not send materials directly to Publicis. Publicis has asked that UT screen the applicants and forward the best 4 or 5 to Publicis for January interviews.

Deadline for applications is Tuesday, October 10th, 2006. Please deliver to Dr. Haley, 476 Communications. Any questions should be addressed to haley@utk.edu

Y&R Internship

Date: September 7, 2006

To: Ad Faculty/Staff, Student Ad Club, and Ad Students

Re: Paid Internship Opportunity - Young & Rubicam, NY

For the twelth year, the UT advertising program is seeking applications for a paid internship at Young & Rubicam, NY, for this upcoming summer. We are fortunate that Y&R has set aside money for a UT advertising student in either account management or account planning. This opportunity was created by former UT students who worked at Y&R. In the past, Jeff Winger, Kevin Kirksey, Nicole McPhillips, Chad Hauther, Emily Adams, Andrew Renfro, Nancy Sloan, Natasha Massey, Tania Ventolini, Shibhan Singh, Stephanie Shaw and Rachael Bell were selected as the Y&R intern. Each has been offered a permanent job with Y&R. Others, like Marc Loffredo, have been asked to come back to interview for permanent positions as a result of interviewing for the internship. Like Jeff, Kevin and Nicole, Marc was also offered a permanent position. Y&R has been very impressed with Jeff, Kevin, Marc, Nicole and other UT students that have worked for them; therefore, they are giving us this opportunity again this year.

To be eligible:

You must be an Ad major, a Junior or at least have one semester until graduation after this upcoming summer.

You must have a passion for advertising.

You must be willing to be interviewed in person by Y&R NY. In the past, the students that Y&R selected to interview also went on the January NYC trip and were interviewed then. If not already signed up for the January trip, see Dr. Haley

MESSAGE FOR ADVERTISING AND PUBLIC RELATIONS - FALL 2006

THANKS TO ALL THE MAJORS who attended the advising sessions last week. If you happened to miss your group's session, then you will need to make an appointment with your assigned faculty advisor to be cleared for registration for spring semester.

GRADUATING ADVERTISING SENIORS ENROLLING IN CAMPAIGNS and who need Management 300 to complete the business minor may enroll in the equivalent course through correspondence at UT Chattanooga. First, you will need to request through your faculty advisor that 3 hours of the 30-hour UT residency requirement be waived. Second, take that signed substitution form to Betty Bradley in the College Advising Center and she will verify your situation for the College of Business Advising Center. For the course to transfer to the Knoxville campus, you must earn a grade of "C" or better.

Advertising students who are not pursuing a business minor may propose another on-campus business class as a substitute. This policy applies only to students who have applied to graduate in Spring 2007 and who have a conflict with Adv 470 and Mngt 300.

If you were enrolled in any of the cancelled sections, you should have received an email alerting you to the change. There is plenty of room in other sections to accommodate students who were signed up for sections that have been cancelled. Sections were cancelled due to low enrollments.

If you are having difficulty scheduling an advertising or public relations class, you should send an email to adv@utk.edu. So far it appears that all fully admitted majors have been registered into the classes they need for fall semester.
