Relations Public Relations Department The Public Relations Office serves as a link between Creighton University and the general public. With the exception of sports items, all Creighton publicity that is sent to local and national news media is channeled through this office. Only recently the Public Relations Department sponsored a brief weekly radio program featuring interviews with various Creighton professors. In addition, the majority of University publications, including the Alumnus magazine and the monthly faculty news- letter, are under the supervision of this department. Another important facet of the Public Relations Office is its speakers bureau, which provides speakers from the University for commencements and other events. The department also coordi- nates and organizes all Creighton-sponsored dinners, including the annual Convocation Dinner. In conjunction with the Alumnus Office, the Public Relations Department maintains a file on all alvmini and a historical scrapbook containing clippings of all news items concerning Creighton. Harry A. Dolphin, Public Relations Director, with the aid of his secretary, Mrs. Delores Kirchofer, sees that the Public Relations Department functions smoothly. Larry Parrott is News Bureau Director, and LeAnne Iwan is Creighton Alumnus Editor. Lawrence I. Parrott Harry A. Dolphin Daniel F. McHugh IS
