Our department has two very active student clubs:

IFSEA (International Food Service Executives Association) This club won eight international awards in San Diego, California last year. We are going to Chicago for our next annual conference. To get there we do many fundraisers. This year's fundraisers included catering for the ONCENTER Air Show in Syracuse N.Y. and working at the Phish Concert. Fun things like this give you an experience you can use on your resume. Here is a picture of us hard at work at one of these events...

The Student Travel Association (STA) is open to all students on campus who have an interest in destination familiarization, gaining and understanding of different cultures, and the workings of the travel industry. Students participate in various social events, field trips to industry sites, and fundraising activities. The highlight of the year's activities is a long weekend field and fun trip to a major tourist destination. The past several years, club members have travelled to Toronto, Canada.
