My daughter (junior in high school) is interested in the hospitality industry (hotels, resorts, travel). Along with Cornell, what colleges should we consider?

Google will get you lots of options, including MSU and Penn State.

Here's a list.
Johnson & Wales appears as #20 on that list, but when I was working in the industry (we sold an application for group housing management) there were an awful lot of J&W alum we dealt with among our customer base (hotel chains, CVBs), perhaps 2nd or 3rd behind only Cornell & FDU.

I agree with Johnson and Wales. Also Pennsylvania College of Technology in PA is a good one. Pennsylvania College of Technology

UNLV. Cornell.
UNLV is nice because of the tremendous amount of exposure to all types of jobs in the industry.

College of Charleston in S.C has an excellent program as does University of SC, but Charleston is way better since its a very popular destination amongst tourist. She would get a much better experience there.
