Kristy Lopez V.P. of Public Relations:

The Alpha Psi Tau Chapter is conducting a survey on storytelling. They would like to know how storytelling is a part of our lives. This is part of their research for their Honors in Action project, and they’d love to have us participate!

Storytelling is an intricate part of the Democratization of Information. Think about the game “Telephone” or all the gossip and rumors started in the hallways, on t.v., and especially on facebook or myspace.

Networking these days has much to do with storytelling, so tell Alpha Psi Tau what it has to do with you.

Thanks again for you participation!
