The proposal will follow the traditional public relations plan format, including a problem statement, situational analysis, research, goals and objectives, discussion of target audiences, program strategies, and evaluation plan. The program's outline format has been adopted from numerous textbooks to meet the needs of Planned Parenthood. The thesis is intended to bring together the various public relations tools learned in studying the field and put them to practical use for an actual organization. 2 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank my thesis advisor, Gardi Wilks, for being my mentor during my four year's in Ball State's department of journalism.

  • Actualwibufinal Directory
    2012-2013 The history of WIBU dates back to 1985. Several local women talked with ECI Small Business Development Center’s director, Nancy Stoll, about starting an organization for women. The goal of the group was to expand their horizons, diversify their skills, develop their own good ole’ girls’ network, and provide career development opportunities with monthly educational programs. The goal was also to make the meetings more flexible with no dues or meeting obligations. To attend you need only make a reservation and pay for the meal on the months you were available. The same applies today. Meetings have been held at places such as Riley-Jones Club, Minnetrista and most recently at the Horizon Convention Center. Lunch seemed to be the best fit for meeting times after testing both breakfast and dinner. The length of the meeting was important because many truly could not take more than 1 hour for lunch. Early lunches were $7.50. Early WIBU organizers, many of whom are now deceased, were from all different walks of life: a manager of the BSU student center hotel, a restaurant owner, a travel agent, etc. Two wom- en from the ECI Small Business Development Center were ex- tremely influential in nurturing WIBU: Nancy Stoll and Barbara ArmstrongArmstrong. Our founders were involved for one reason: to help other women reach their dreams and goals. They wanted to change the business world for the better--not to toot their own horns. Together, these trail-blazing women became the first board, and developed a mission statement, bylaws and came up with a name: Women in Business Unlimited, open to all women in any position in a company—not just the business owners.

  • Hoosiers and the American Story Chapter 5
    Reuben Wells Locomotive The Reuben Wells Locomotive is a fifty-six ton engine named after the Jeffersonville, Indiana, mechanic who designed it in 1868. This was no ordinary locomotive. It was designed to carry train cars up the steepest rail incline in the country at that time—in Madison, Indi- ana. Before the invention of the Reuben Wells, trains had to rely on horses or a cog system to pull them uphill. The cog system fitted a wheel to the center of the train for traction on steep inclines. You can now see the Reuben Wells at the Children’s Museum of Indianapolis. You can also take rides on historic trains that depart from French Lick and Connersville, Indiana. 114 | Hoosiers and the American Story 2033-12 Hoosiers American Story.indd 114 8/29/14 10:59 AM 5 The Age of Industry Comes to Indiana [The] new kind of young men in business downtown . had one supreme theory: that the perfect beauty and happiness of cities and of human life was to be brought about by more factories. — Booth Tarkington, The Magnificent Ambersons (1918) Life changed rapidly for Hoosiers in the decades New kinds of manufacturing also powered growth. after the Civil War.

    COMPREHENSIVE PLAN C ITY OF ANDERSON, INDIANA PREPARED WITH THE ASSISTANCE OF: RATIO Architects, Inc. 107 South Pennsylvania St. Suite 100 Indianapolis, Indiana 46204 ph: 317.633.4040 fx: 317.633.4153 www.RATIOarchitects.com IN ASSOCIATION WITH: Strategic Development Group, Inc. 2901 N. Walnut St. Bloomington, Indiana 47404 ADOPTED BY THE ph: 812.331.1282 CITY COUNCIL ON: OCTOBER 25, 2005 fx: 812.331.1285 RESOLUTION NO.: 40-05 www.S-D-G.com FOREWORD Since the last Anderson Comprehensive Plan was adopted in 1962, much in the community has changed. The employment base has eroded as manufacturers moved their operations abroad seeking reduced labor costs. The City’s population peaked in 1970 at nearly 71,000, but has since steadily declined as jobs flowed outward. As a result of these trends, Anderson has been faced with the challenge of maintaining its identity in the face of great change. It is this challenge that serves as the impetus for the creation of a new Anderson Comprehensive Plan. NTRODUCTION The process of creating a new Comprehensive Plan provided Anderson with the I opportunity to take a critical look at itself, and to reflect on the values that define it as a community. Citizens from all walks of life came together to express their hopes and dreams for the future of Anderson. The result of this effort is a plan that reflects not only the heritage that defines Anderson, but the vision its people have for their future. This Plan serves as a comprehensive guide for City decision-making in areas related to land use, growth, housing, public services, and many other key community issues.
