Employer Perceptions Of Online Degree Programs
[ send me this paper ]
15 pages in length. The tangibility of classroom learning is, to many, akin to receiving a genuine education; without the structured foundation of attending several classes in a given day, socializing with fellow students and interacting directly with the instructor, some question how a true academic degree can be obtained. Employers are high on the list of those who doubt the validity of online degrees so popular in contemporary culture, inasmuch as they question the very integrity of such an academic accomplishment. The extent to which online degrees reflect the exact opposite of traditional methods with regard to its fundamental approach is both grand and far-reaching; that both produce a degree for which the student has studied, struggled and succeeded speaks to the growing pains inherent to any new and relatively untapped source of technological advancement. One might readily surmise that employers have a knee-jerk reaction to the unfamiliar territory of online degree programs, with many of them failing to realize how these virtual programs are not only equivalent to the academic rigor required of students, but also the extent to which these programs go out of their way to be even more challenging by virtue of their need to prove validity to a skeptical workforce. Bibliography lists 10 sources.

Eric Schlosser's "Fast Food Nation": Critical Analysis Based Upon Thoman And Freire's Opinions
[ send me this paper ]
7 pages in length. Critically analyzing Eric Schlosser's "Fast Food Nation" based upon the opinions of Thoman and Freire enables one to better understand the extent to which Schlosser's concept is adopted – sometimes subtly, other times more obviously – throughout the vastness of academic psychology. Clearly, the fundamental purpose of Schlosser's book is to illustrate how homogenized society has become in direct relation to the fast food mentality; as such, contemporary education has been unwittingly drawn into the downward spiral of this existence, serving to deny students the ability to apply self-determination rather than coercion, intentionality rather than reaction, creativity rather than homogeneity and rationality rather than chance. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Establishing the Hospitality Department and Shaping its Future
[ send me this paper ]
A 30 page paper discussing points that need to be addressed in developing a university hospitality school. There is little reason that hoteliers’ operational methods should greatly differ from educators’ operational methods of producing individuals qualified for hospitality education and management. Each undertaking has customers to serve, and each likely can improve on processes used. Former Ritz-Carlton CEO Horst Schulze reminisces that Ritz management recognized the Baldrige Award criteria as a set of quality-oriented goals that could benefit Ritz-Carlton and help it to achieve its goals of improving both results and expectations in operations. The same is true regarding the position the university’s hospitality department now holds and also that which it seeks to attain within the coming decade. The purpose here is to review the manner, methods and rationale through which the hospitality department can emerge as a leading program. Bibliography lists 16 sources.
