At Champlain College, Newman is pursuing a major in public relations with a minor in event management. She is an active member of the college’s Public Relations Student Society of America (PRSSA).

The Yankee Chapter PRSA Scholarship recognizes the academic achievement, demonstrated leadership, and commitment to public relations of a student with a declared major in a public relations-related field studying at a degree-granting college or university in Maine, New Hampshire, or Vermont.

The Yankee Chapter will begin accepting applications for the 2020 scholarship early next year.
