Photo by Gary Sapone Stutts Gets Settled While Huck Catalogues Archives Dr. Alan T. Stutts was named as the new dean of the UH Conrad N. Hilton College of Hotel and Restaurant Management. He is the former associate dean of the College of Hotel Administration at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas . "I am committed to helping students successfully apply hospitality management theories to the complex problems they'll face as industry executives, and I know the UH Hilton College is dedicated to the same goal," Stutts said. He is the author of three textbooks, in wide use nationally and internationally, which focus on blending theory with real world problems. Stutts added that enthusiasm shown by university administration, faculty, students, alumni and industry leaders about the Hilton College was a significant factor in his decision to accept the position of dean and tenured full professor. "Dr. Stutts will provide the experienced leadership needed as we continue pursuing excellence in hospitality education. He is highly respected by his academic peers and is recognized for his intellectual abilities," said Glenn D. Aumann, UH Provost and Acting Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs. Stutts maintains that "There is so much of interest here I want researchers on campus to know about it, so they can make full use of this valuable and exciting information." - Archivist Cathleen Huck studying for a career in the hotel, restaurant and hospitality industry offers tremendous opportunities. "I am excited by the prospect of working at the UH Hilton College which has state-of-the- art facilities providing students am environment for testing new ideas while practicing the fundamentals of hospitality management," Stutts said. Stutts succeeded Dr. R. Hugh Walker, who returned to the faculty in the UH physics department. Stutts completed his undergraduate and master's degrees at the University of Arizona, and his Ph.D. at the University of Illinois. Before j oining the faculty of UNLV he spent a number of years providing technical assistance to hotel and restaurant operators and was also involved in the operation of hotels and restaurants. While the new dean settled in, archivist of the Hilton Archives and Library Cathleen Huck was busy cataloguing 300 boxes of historical information that details the growth of Hilton Hotels and Hilton International. The documents include financial records, operating reports, acquisitions, sales proposals and correspondence. Huck said, "Hotel industry history is actually the social history of modern America." The archives are located in the new wing of Hilton College — U ofH Magazine Alan T. Stutts, and Restaurant Dean Conrad Management. N. Hilton Photo by College of Hotel Mark Lacy 80 62) Academics |
