Have you heard of the new India PR wiki? If not, head straight to PrEducation. This wiki is noble endeavour by K Srinivasan, Chairman, Prime Point Public Relations P Limited and Prime Point Foundation, and of the famous Yahoo PR groups, to design a PR course for the Anna University from inputs by industry professionals.
The wiki is a collaborative efforts wherein any PR professional can volunteer to contribute his/ her inputs. Currently, there is a brainstorming on what all topics could be included in a university PR course.
For some time now, we have been talking about the need to guide PR students with practical industry knowledge. This is a chance for all of us to contribute something towards to the cause of PR education in India.
After the brain storming, 'an expert panel will be formed out of the volunteers from the group to consolidate the views'. The final stage will involve further refining before the course is handed over to the University.

Thanks for spreading the word.
Hi, I think this is a fantastic idea to create a course...am always for this idea of collaboration.
In fact, I teach at St. Joseph's College of Business Administration, Bangalore and feel there is a need to have a closer interaction with the industry and academics.
