Summer 2021
Hot weather is arriving any day now, and that means it is time for TISOH’s summer semester! This summer is a special one, as we are welcoming everyone—students, alumni, faculty, industry colleagues—back to campus for in-person classes, workshops, and events that all of us have missed so much. We have a spectacular line-up of in-person social and academic events, with the return of our always-popular Hangouts and Special Events. We will continue to offer our web series events for all who prefer, including online students. Skills Workshops will be held in the lecture hall. The Pineapple Lounge, with your favorite video games, is open. Best of all, instructors, students, and alumni can meet again, in-person, for teaching, learning, and networking. All of us are anticipating, and excited about, opening back up on May 17th.

Spring 2021
As we approached the new year, I looked back at a 2020 filled with challenges to our industry and to our institution. Throughout, even as we all were forced to change, adapt, and accept less-than-ideal circumstances, TISOH has kept its mission front and center; our commitment to our industry and students to provide practical, career-focused education and training has guided a series of developments that allowed us to continue, and indeed, to expand our reach.

Fall 2020
What a year it has been! Most of us have adapted to being at home in front of a computer screen rather than learning, working, and meeting in person. It has been quite a change, but as resilient professionals, we just need to embrace it and move on. I am pleased to report that practically all students enrolled this year adapted successfully to the new learning environment required by our new shared reality. All were determined not to let COVID-19 disrupt their learning and future careers. I am proud to say that TISOH has not missed a beat, with enhanced student services and the personal attention we have always been known for. This fall, students have even more to get excited about, with the implementation of interactive learning tools in all programs.

Summer 2020
Adapting to the new reality, TISOH has not been sitting still. Our classroom programs converted to remote video conferencing. A command center was setup in the faculty lounge to ensure that all classes operated properly with full remote support. Student services were setup to become more active than ever. I am so proud of the school community for being so positive and open to all ideas.

Spring 2019
One of TISOH's resolutions is to broaden our outreach with the community. You may have seen us on social media where members of the administrative staff made visits to local high schools and participated in their career fairs. You will see them out and about even more this year. We have also made strides in reaching out to veterans in providing them with education and job training.

Spring 2018
Around the TISOH campus you will see pineapples popping in every nook and cranny of the building. It's even ingrained into our logo as a symbol for hospitality. Because we are a school specializing in hospitality, we wanted our school to be decorated with a sense of warmth and care to any visitor walking in. The spirit of hospitality is alive and well at TISOH and I hope everyone will be kind to each other this season.
