Fisher College/Liberty Hotel Internship Partnership
Junior Mendoza '10 is the picture of perseverance and determination. When it came time for this Hospitality and Tourism Management major to complete his internship, he followed a lead provided to him by Program Director Richard Metzger and landed an unpaid, 40-hour per week position in the housekeeping department of the Liberty Hotel.
After completing his summer term, Junior was offered a full-time position at the 4 diamond hotel as a Housekeeping Supervisor. Junior now works second shift while completing his senior year of college. While at work, he manages a staff as large as 26, ensuring superb customer service. Junior is so grateful for his opportunity but Brian Lodermeier, Director of Rooms at the Liberty Hotel, says he is the lucky one to have Junior on board!
