Flagler College creates Hospitality and Tourism Advisory Board

Posted on March 2, 2017

Flagler College held the inaugural meeting of its Hospitality and Tourism Advisory Board on Monday, Feb. 27. The Board will serve as a link between leaders in the hospitality and tourism industry and Flagler’s new major within the Sport Management Department.
Forty-six students currently major in the college’s Hospitality and Tourism Management program. Program Director Dr. Zachary Cole expects that number to double this fall. Students, he said, will benefit from the new Advisory Board by gaining practical experience and professional mentorship and guidance.
“I’m extremely excited about getting this Board off the ground and running,” he said. “There has been a groundswell of support from community and local industry leaders. Getting that enthusiasm formalized and leveraged against all Flagler College has to offer for the benefit of our students is exhilarating.”
