Last year, more than 800 students transferred to Johnson & Wales University to pursue bachelor’s degrees in the fields of business, culinary arts, hospitality, or technology. Our campus locations in Providence, Rhode Island; North Miami, Florida; Denver, Colorado; and Charlotte, North Carolina provide students with the opportunity to study in the city and climate of their choice. Many students choose to complete their education at Johnson & Wales because of our outstanding employment rate – 98% of our graduates are employed within 60 days of graduation!"

Christesen speaks out about Virginia Tech tragedyThe tragic events at Virginia Tech have truly seared our hearts and mindsat PSI and across campus here at the National Headquarters of Alpha Beta Gamma. Such savage, savage brutality has no place in law-abiding society and among civilized people everywhere, no matter the country. As President Bush stated, when anyone violates the santuary of a college campus, every college campus is affected. Our prayers go to all who are in any way hurting and our profound sorrow, with yours, is ever with us. Chapters are holding a vigil for all victims and their families and friends. May God keep all of us comforted and give us supernatural strength and power to cope, as only He can do that. --Dr. John D.
