In your case, I feel a structured internship program and a supervisory role at work could be important. Keep up with you good work!Linchi Kwokhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07442479571857032065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-550644928710399345.post-65640669083161442962010-09-05T17:35:42.267-07:002010-09-05T17:35:42.267-07:00This blog post made me think.

When I was in high school deciding where I wanted to go to college, I was positive I wanted to attend a college that had a program for hospitality. I was so sure that this was the path I wanted to take that I took a class at FIT in New York City during my sophomore year in event planning and once I fell in love with that, I applied for a job in a hotel to work at the front desk and in the catering department. During my junior and senior year of high school I worked at the Grand Summit Hotel two days a week further proving my strong interest for the hospitality business. I believe that a student can hold a job during college to help explore the many different aspects and possibilities however I also agree with what you mentioned about how freshman need to have the typical college experience and not be thinking so far in advance... this is a confusing idea and there are so many different opinions but I do know that either way, Syracuse hospitality has fantastic resources and hopefully when we graduate we will be able to be placed into a great job!Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13358580626681402445noreply@blogger.com
