Featured Clubs

One of the oldest organizations in Gaylord College, the Ad Club introduces students to an exciting profession that is constantly changing. Club members meet regularly with industry professionals who provide guidance and advice on navigating future careers. And freshmen are welcome!


Many students studying public relations, the largest major in Gaylord College, join our chapter of the Public Relations Student Society of America to learn about this exciting profession. The college’s PRSSA chapter is one of the nation’s oldest and one of the few named chapters — in this case, for the late Stewart Harral, a public relations professor at OU and a nationally recognized expert in the field. PRSSA chapter members interact with professionals, many of whom are Gaylord graduates, and receive advice about preparing for their careers. And you can get involved immediately.
