Another in a series of Etiquette Dinners was held at Le Jeune Chef Restaurant on Wednesday evening, giving Penn College student leaders and organization members a valuable opportunity to prepare for professional occasions that center on haute cuisine. This week's event, co-sponsored by the Career Services and Student Activities offices, was the latest in what has become a delicious and altogether useful "must" on students' crowded plate. Aided by restaurant staff and mentors – college employees, alumni and community friends – attendees learn how proper table manners can help project confidence and maturity to a prospective employer. “This was one of the most engaging groups we have had since we started this initiative" three years ago, said Dana R. Suter, coordinator of part-time student employment and career programming (who also supplied the photos). “The students asked great questions and I am confident they ended the evening with a greater knowledge of fine dining.”
