FOOD STUDIES PROGRAM FEATURED
IN THE NEW YORK TIMES
I am pleased to announce that The New York Times printed a story about Hostos' new Food Studies Associate Degree Program, which is set to launch in the fall of 2015.
As you will read in this article, this program is critically important and it was created with the help of many different community partners. We are confident that the Food Studies Program at Hostos will go a long way in making a positive change in the Bronx and beyond.
Sincerely,
David G�mez, Ed.D.
Interim President
