Tourism is our number one industry. It's a big deal. So we have Culinary Arts and Hospitality Management. The nice thing is, is that the students get to take what they've learned in the classroom and apply it in real hands-on learning. The McKernan Hospitality Center is the residential inn that is here on campus. We have what we call "real guests" from the outside that stay in our eight-room inn, they eat in the McKernan Center. They are here for events. We do all types of events from high tea to haunted houses to corporate events. We do have opportunities out of class. We do have a Business Club on campus, which is probably the one of the most active clubs on campus. They've taken trips to New York City, Boston.... They also have a stock portfolio where students participate in buying and selling stock for the club. The opportunity to travel internationally for our students is a really unique opportunity. We have a trip that we've held in Austria previously. We have a trip that will be happening in Barcelona. So it's a learning experience and really immersive and I think it really gives them like a different sense of the industry and makes them really excited and passionate. I think we have a responsibility to prepare our students and we'll do anything we can to help you be a successful student.
