Hey Bulls! 🐂
Thank you so much for joining the Hospitality & Tourism Club and Congratulations on making it through the first two weeks of your Fall Semester. We’re excited to kick off the semester with you! Big shoutout to our amazing officials who’ll be leading with us this year.
We’re especially proud to launch our new flagship series: Hospitality x Visionary Voices. This is all about bridging the gap between what we learn in the classroom and what’s happening out in the real world.
Our first panel is a big one:
Tampa 2035: Shaping the Next Economy;Where Do You Fit In?
📅 Thursday, September 11th, 2025
5:30PM-7:00PM
📍 MSC Oval Theater
We’re bringing top Tampa Bay leaders straight to campus to talk about the city’s next decade and how students like us can fit into it. Confirmed speakers include:
-
Santiago Corrada (CEO, Visit Tampa Bay)
-
Craig Richard (CEO, Tampa Bay EDC)
-
Jon Kaupla (Associate Dean, Muma College of Business)
Moderated by Allen Clary ( Executive Director, Nault Center of Entrepreneurship)
Hospitality & Tourism Club members will benefit most because this panel puts them at the center of the conversation about Tampa’s future brand, economy, and identity which is exactly what hospitality and tourism are built on.
And that’s just the start. This semester, we’ll also have events designed to bring us together, help us connect, and make the club feel like home.
See you soon and mark your calendars for Sept 11!
