Galloway,  N.J. - Twenty-eight Hospitality and Tourism Management students at Stockton University were inducted in the Eta Sigma Delta International Hospitality Honor Society in a virtual ceremony April 10 coordinated by Ruth O’Rouke from James Madison University, ESD Board Chair, and Tim Flohr at the University of Memphis.

Keynote speaker Tom Faust, vice president of Sales Margaritaville, Lake Conroe, Texas, spoke to the inductees about the importance of the group's Six Points of Honor.

Eta Sigma Delta is part of the International Council on Hotel, Restaurant and Institutional Educators (ICHRIE) and recognizes the scholastic and professional achievements of students and alumni studying hospitality, tourism and culinary arts. 

Students take an oath to uphold the Six Points of Honor including Creativity, Diversity-Equity-Inclusion, Ethics, Excellence, Leadership and Service. This is a lifetime membership that allows for continuing professional development, education and networking.
