Message from the Faculty Director

 

Dear Colleagues,


As the new year kicks off gaming, hospitality and tourism operators are busy making plans for the approaching summer season. Both long-term and short-term development projects are underway to attract visitors to Jersey Shore destinations.

This issue of LIGHTs On focuses on development projects, both planned and already in progress, in South Jersey. One article covers exciting new projects in progress in the Wildwoods, and another focuses on the tremendous impact that the four Community Development Corporations are having on improving the appeal of Atlantic City.

Additionally, this issue’s leader interview is with Elizabeth Terenik, president of the Chelsea Economic Development Corporation in Atlantic City.

We hope these featured stories, and the articles available in the International Journal of Gaming, Hospitality and Tourism, will serve as an inspiration and resource for you and your team as you strive to make 2025 the best year ever.

 

Sincerely,

Jane Bokunewicz

Faculty Director, LIGHT
