Disney Comes to Town!
Attention all students who are interested in an internship program with Disney World, Orlando. Disney's international recruiter, Ms Sue Sharpe will be on campus to interview you on 27 Oct 2007 (Sat) from 8.30am.

Keep the whole morning, and early afternoon free for the event as she will only be here for one day. Application forms will be given out when you come back for Semester 2 on 15 Oct 2007.

Remember to discuss with your parents, ensure you have enough savings, and be mentally prepared for the session. Its important to be yourself and find out if you are suitable for the internship - you don't want to find that out after you've already landed in Orlando!

Those who do not want to go but wish to come and hear more about Disney from Ms Sharpe are also welcomed to come on Sat to join in her presentation.

Any questions, please let Ms Elinda Gan 6550-1123 know.
Cheers, and see you all soon!

Project "DHRM T-Shirt"

2007-05-01T23:34:00.000-07:00

The Diploma in Hospitality & Resort Management (DHRM) is a new diploma, and we would like to give YOU, our DHRM students, the opportunity to create a unique identity for yourselves by way of a T-shirt!!

We invite you to submit individual or group T-shirt designs via email to:
alex_choo@nyp.gov.sg

T-shirt designs should include:
1. A tag line or slogan for the Diploma
2. A suitable logo or motif representative of the Diploma
3. Suggestions of possible T-shirt color and style (ie, polo T-shirt, round neck, etc)

You are encouraged to be as creative as you wish. Just keep in mind that the tag line/slogan and logo/motif should be REPRESENTATIVE OF DHRM - tourism in general but especially hospitality (hotels) and MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conventions & Exhibitions).

Most importantly, the T-shirts and deigns should be something all DHRM students (and even students from other Dips) would be proud to wear.

All designs should be submitted to the above email by Friday, 18 May 2007.

Selected designs will be posted on this blog and students will get a chance to vote for their favourite design. The design with the highest votes will (subject to SBM's blessings) be incorporated in the new DHRM T-shirt!
