What is a college renowned for their public relations field?

I am a high school student looking into public relations and I want to go to a college that will help me prepare the most for life. Please help (:

You are better off looking for an ancillary field such as advertising, psychology, political science, pre-law or journalism. PR is the process of making lies sound pretty and protecting rich people’s r-sez when they mess up. You will need more knowledge, skills and approaches than you can learn in college from people who have been lying all their lives. It’s a bogus major, like sociology and art history. You’ll never get hired with it.

If you don’t believe me, get off your chair and go interview people who are successful in PR in your city. Ask them how they got there and what they would advise you to do. If you are seriously thinking about that work, you need to develop the solid brass attitude to go in and ask tough questions.
