Where the hell are the men? If population is 50/50, shouldn’t men be the same? Is this an all woman’s club? What about diversity laws? How many blacks or minorities? It is a WHITE Woman’s club!

Whoever wrote the neagative comments, you could at least add your name to them.

I am a big fan of our local PRSA chapter. It’s an active group, offers an incredible amount of events to benefit PR professionals, and represents us well. More diversity is always good, but there is diversity with this group in ways other than gender.
