Our student chapter Hospitality Sales and Marketing Organization (HSMO) is a very active group, involved in sales blitzes and marketing for local and regional hospitality outlets, on-campus service activities and staffing of our numerous industry-related trade shows. The mission of the club is to strengthen and unify the hospitality sales and marketing community through ongoing communication and education. The chapter strives to bridge the gap between classroom learning and real world experience. The club brings in industry executives to talk to the students, and then typically small teams of students break off to work on projects for that particular company. It is our hope that this will widen student’s knowledge and help come time of graduation.
