• Resumen

  • To further unite hospitality education with the industry, this case study discusses how practicing club managers served as mentors to students in a Club Management class. The focus of interaction between students and their mentors was a term project that involved a paper on a topic of interest in the club industry. Feedback from students and managers alike was very positive, with students reporting that the project contributed to their appreciation of the course subject matter, and club managers indicating that they would volunteer again to participate in this type of project. Other peripheral benefits of the mentoring relationship included job interviews, job offers, and internships.
