History
Seeing a need for an organization that would allow public relations majors to practice the skills they learned in the classroom, the Tower Agency was created in the spring of 1996. Under the advisement of Shelly Green, the Tower Agency was founded by Wartburg students Christi Larson '97, Eric Allen '98, Melissa Jacobson '99 and Suzanne Behnke '97. Larson served as the organization's first Chief Executive officer. During its initial operating year, the Tower Agency had eight clients.
