HOSPITALITY STRONG https://padlet.com/aflscomm/muf9ql2tobdo4nzn/wish/558563435 For all the graduating hospitality seniors I will miss you on Saturday.  But you turn those tassels wherever in this big world you are!  You did it and I couldn't be more proud of each and everyone of you.  As you part from the hospitality program please remember to be a pineapple everyday -- you stand tall, you wear that crown, and always be sweet on the inside.  We are hospitality strong!  Now go do great things and change the world.  I will miss you all.

Stay safe, stay positive and keep moving forward with optimism – your future awaits and the best is yet to come!
 
You got this!
