Week 5: Happy 4th of July!

Hey y'all!

Not much happened this week.  Carolyn and I were with the Marketing Department Monday through Wednesday.  During this rotation, we went over to Red Raider Orientation to shadow Dee with her presentation and did some tabling at the Resource Fair.  The fair allowed parents and students to come up to the Hospitality Table to ask questions about dining halls and the services of the department.  We also got the opportunity to talk with other people withing the department where they gave us a run down of their position and what they do in and out of work.  This also gave us the opportunity to ask questions about our capstone project.  Our capstone project entails us to convert a dining hall, Hulen/Clement, to a Gluten Friendly facility.  As a group, we have to come up with 8 different recipes, training manual, and produce an exploration event for the facility.  We are presenting the project next Monday, so it is crunch time!

On Thursday and Friday, all of us were together once again in the catering department.  This rotation was like the Marketing rotation.  We went around the department shadowing and listening to people about their job descriptions.  On Friday, the assistant director, Colby, took us around the catering kitchen downstairs and different venues that are catered through Top Tier Catering at Tech.

This weekend as all of you know was 4th of July weekend.  One of our coworkers, Kayla, invited us over to a BBQ at a friend's house.  We kicked backed, relaxed and enjoyed delicious homemade food along with great conversations and fireworks!  I tell you, Texas people do 4th of July better!

Fireworks!
That is all my friends! Week 5 is now in the books and there is only three weeks left of my journey at Tech!  This week we will be working on our capstone project and get our presentation ready to go by Monday.  Happy 4th of July everyone!
