It seems I've been speaking an awful lot lately (that's not a complaint, as I love speaking). Last night was a new experience. I spoke to a group of about 60 students at Texas State University's Public Relations Student Society of America (PRSSA). Somehow this was the first time I've had the opportunity to speak with students. What a blast!

They were hyper engaged, asked great questions and hopefully really learned a lot about what networking really is and how it works in the real world.

Their Twitter comments were certainly flattering (If you're on Twitter follow them. They're sharp!):

Cayers05: listening to @scottingram speak about networking at PRSSA at #txst! He is awesome!

NoamKrig: Scott Ingram media specialist to TSU students: stay in touch with each other you can never know who will become what http://pic.gd/5b39

K_Schmidt: Ive taken more notes than I did in class. RT@dquack Loving how the @txstateprssa students are really listening to @scottingram presentation.

Of course all of the bits about my being "funny" were qualified. In talking with them afterwords I came to learn that I'm really just hyper funny compared to their average dull college professors. Oh well, I'll take what I can get.

You can find a copy of the presentation here: Networking for College Students.

Thank you Dara Quackenbush (@dquack) for the invitation. I hope it was all you had hoped for.

Happy Networking!
