We worked with Pittsburg State on our Advertising Consultancy project for our 2 brands in Fall of 2023. We met several times with the students to give them information about our brands, answer questions that they have about them, and help to give them additional information once each group selected the best methods of reaching our target audience. The students were very engaged and interested in the project. Each group submitted unique advertising solutions during their final presentations. They showed creativity in their variety of solutions and made a good case for why each one would help us reach our advertising goals.

Both the professor and the students that I worked with on our project did a good job at communicating and kept me in the loop on what they were working on. The students delivered great feedback on the tasks that I had them working on. I look forward to working with the program again.

The students and professor were fantastic. I am very happy.

The instructor was in rush for every step even he left at the beginning of the student's final presentation. Students were unorganized, they had technical difficulties for each online meeting and couldn't participate 3 out of 4 meetings. Their report was very poor quality. Overall the whole team left bad impression.

Professor Dalecki was great to work with and had a good process for assigning the students and supporting the project. I was very pleased with the result.

The faculty and students assigned to my project were wonderful. Very professional and timely with the needs and requests of our business. Work product was exceptional.

The Riipen program through Pittsburg State University is a wonderful resource for small to medium size organizations such as Victorious Family. It was encouraging working with the leadership and students at PSU. I recommend the experience to any organizational leader who has a professor and student led project.

I had an excellent experience working with Mr. Dalecki and his students. I am away with a nice list of things to do that are going to improve our foundation and get more donors.

The professor and students were very professional, reliable and kept the lines of communication open.

Working with Pittsburg State, specifically Professor Linden Dalecki was a positive experience from start to finish. Under Professor Dalecki's guidance. the students were very reliable and professional. They were responsive along the way and their final presentation was in-depth and valuable to my business going forward. They exceeded my expectations.

Working with Pittsburg State was a valuable and positive experience. Professor Dalecki and his students exceeded my expectations in providing valuable insights and solutions that I am already implementing.

I was disappointed with the experience of working with this class on our youth-focused social media campaign. There was very little communication with the class. When interactions did happen with the class, it was in a very ad hoc manner. For example, our Executive Director was contacted at 8p in the evening to present to the class right then; there was no advanced notice. This was also the case in what apparently was the final presentation of the project's findings: I received an email less than 24 hours before the presentation was to be given. Unfortunately, I was unable to attend that presentation and to this day am still trying to see the final deliverable from the engagement. Given that we are the client in this situation, the lack of communication and sharing of really any meaningful deliverable is just unacceptable. We now have to engage with another class at a different institution in order to accomplish our objective. I think this course really needs to rethink how it engages with its partners and treat them more as a client. The manner in which they approached our project does not prepare the students for interacting with clients, so I'm not really sure what value either side is supposed to get from this kind of interaction.

Despite the fact that this project was apparently completed, the professor never corresponded with me after his first message. So I have nothing to say.

We're only 1/2 way through the project but I am very impressed so for... Linden and his students have exceeded my expectations.

We are still working on our project so far we have some amazing students with great ideas. We will have more to share in time. Helen Koutalianos
