In this episode we speak with Amy Laramie, Director of Brand Marketing, Events and Special Projects and Calvin Merrill, Snow Reporter about attending the Castleton Resort and Hospitality Management program at Killington Resort. This unique college experience combines real world, hands-on learning with more traditional college classes just a few miles from the base of Killington. We hear about the unique accelerated program that provides paid co-operative education for students, and in turn provides the resort with dedicated, enthusiastic employees.
Then we talk with President and General Manager Mike Solimano about his take on the resort and hospitality program and what value it brings. We also learn that Mike taught the very first class at the program—before, as he puts it—“they found a real professor.”
