Blog #7: Higher Education

What are your thoughts on higher education (college) in the United States. As some of you know, a U.S. education is often times perceived around the world as being prestigious. Do you think this is the case? If not, what, if anything, can be done to change this?

This will be our last blog of the course. Thanks to those of you who participated. I enjoyed reading and discussing your thoughts.

Blog #5- The Hosptality College

As I mentioned in class last week, The Hospitality College is in the process of developing new programs and courses for future classes. I'm interested in hearing your thoughts. Is there anything we should be teaching that we are not? Conversely, is there a class in our program that perhaps shouldn't be there?

I'll give you up until Friday, November 6 to contribute to this blog. If you can, contribute something quicker because I am off to Providence to discuss this in a few weeks.

I'm looking forward to hearing some good things so tell everyone to join Blogger and contribute!

Blog #4: Current Events

It's been quite the newsworthy week (if you have been following). There have been some tragic events in our schools across the country as well as a host of new controversies for the President and his administration.

Read the newspaper or watch the television of computer news and identify a story that's of interest to you. Discuss why it is interesting to you. We'll discuss them in class on Friday.
