Abstract

This study attempts to examine the ways in which gender is enacted an organizational level in public relations, specifically in the context of undergraduate public relations education, an area woefully underrepresented in public relations research. Through this study, I will identify and examine specific aspects of the organization that enact gender, and explore the ways in which this gender enactment impacts the feminization of public relations undergraduate education.
