Conrad N. Hilton

[edit]

Isn't it a bit misleading to use Conrad N. Hilton's quote with this? After all, a few years later Hilton established the Hilton College of Hotel and Restaurant Management at the University of Houston, and I think he would've said that this was the best school in its specialty after that. No? Brianreading (talk) 19:03, 17 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

the mockery of hotelies

[edit]

While I like to mock hotelies as much as the next Cornellian, that last paragraph is horrible. I realize there is a cultural aspect to such humor, but is it necessary to include that kind of material? The AAP article doesn't have derogatory comments about Cornell architect students by Cornell engineers, although that is very much part of the culture. At best, if such comments need to be in the article, they should be in a better context so that people see why such comments get made, e.g. describe the kinds of activities and projects that hotelies do. Also, I don't think the term paper thing is really accurate either. --C S (Talk) 22:03, 9 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Most of the page was a copyvio but it's now a redirect to this article. Here's the entire non copyright material. Merge in if it fits:

"Hotel Ezra Cornell is a hospitality leadership conference that planned, managed, and executed by students at Cornell University's School of Hotel Administraion. The conference takes place at the university's on-campus hotel, The Statler Hotel & J. Willard Marriott Executive Education Center. The annual conference attracts industry leaders, alumni, and academics."

Northern Arizona U

[edit]

I'm affiliated with one of the institutions mentioned in the article, so I'd appreciate if someone neutral would check and confirm that NAU's hotel program is an independent college within the university. I made a correction because the article stated that Cornell had the only free-standing hotel school (not in a college of business, professional studies, etc.). That fact is incorrect and I cited other schools.

I believe NAU's program is part of a larger college, but I'd like a third party to confirm/refute that and edit accordingly.

I don't know about NAU, but the University of Houston has the Hilton College of Hotel and Restaurant Management which is a free=standing academic college. Brianreading (talk) 19:05, 17 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Triumphalism?

[edit]

This article is quite self-congratulatory. Having just stayed 2 nights at the Statler Hotel, I was surprised at the problems I and my friends encountered: really bad pillows; internet service not working in several rooms; lack of in-room safes; and most sadly, student employees who were ignorant about basic matters (in-room safes; check-out times; how to get to the Thruway). I don't expect the Ritz, but I didn't get the sense that they were being trained to a high standard of information. Bellagio99 15:14, 31 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This article is about the specific program at Cornell's hotel school: merge the content there. The title "Professional Development Program" should then either be deleted or made into a dab page, as a generic term. PamD 21:51, 14 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Viral video inclusion

[edit]

I've removed this silly section on a viral video from 2010. Among other things things, it's a clear violation of WP:UNDUE on a page about a well-known management school, and a clear violation of our WP:TRIVIA guideline. OhNoitsJamie Talk 20:42, 4 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Non-objective language

[edit]

The recent end of the History section has a duplicate sentence but is also written in editorial form and not objectively. 50.247.217.225 (talk) 00:23, 1 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
