To Our Food Service and Hospitality Education Graduates:
Congratulations! With graduation you have reached another milestone in your culinary career. I know that reaching that milestone has not been easy. We at Kapi 'olani Community College take great pride in our hotel and culinary programs and set high standards for you, our graduates, to achieve. We set these high standards because we know that the industry will demand that you be creative, hard-working, service-oriented, businessoriented, and able to work under pressure. By succeeding and graduating, you should now be both proud and confident that you have not only met our standards but are ready to succeed in the industry.
You are at the beginning stages of a professional career. A professional is someone who is able to work independently and is able to adapt to changing times. A professional is someone who recognizes that Teaming never ends and who contributes back to the profession of which he or she is a member. A professional is someone who takes pride in the detail of his or her work. A professional is someone who is willing to mentor and pass on knowledge to new students entering the field. Remember these things as you continue to grow and contribute to the profession of culinary arts.
If you ask the general public about Kapi 'olani Community College, you will more often than not hear complimentary remarks about the food service program and the wonderful food and service provided by the students. For all those long hours and hard work, I want to thank you. For helping to build that pride in not only the food service program but the College in general, I want to thank you. But I also want to invite you to remain a part of the College. Whether through alumni activities, through further education, through simply coming back and helping, I hope to see you again here at Kapi 'olani. And who knows, someday I may be introducing you to the public as a distinguished visiting chef and proud graduate of Kapi 'olani Community College.
Aloha,
John Morton Provost

Hotel Operations KCC's Hotel Operations program prepares students for immediate employment in the indu-stry after graduation, by using a handson approach to major courses.

Many Hotel Operations Internship students are offered full-time jobs upon graduation which are a result of their excellent performance as an intern. With tourism being the top industry in Hawai 'i, the Hotel Operations degree is definitely a useful one.
