unique session for GYD students:
Garnish Your Degree (GYD) students are students who have completed their bachelor’s degree prior to beginning the culinary arts or baking & pastry program at Johnson & Wales University. Because GYD students have already completed a degree and have often spent their most recent years in the work force, their questions may be different than those of other students.
Therefore, if you are a GYD student, a unique New Student Orientation session has been planned just for you! When you register, please be sure to choose the GYD session on Saturday, August 2, 2008. This is the only unique session that will be offered for GYD students, so be sure to save the date!
