Summer in Italy: Niagara University Students Working Abroad at ‘Hollywood on Lake Como’
Since 2004, Niagara University’s College of Hospitality and Tourism Management has offered its students summer work-abroad opportunities at luxury resorts in a region of Italy that The New York Times describes as “a playground for the wealthy.”
Located in northern Italy, on the border of Switzerland, Lake Como is situated in the foothills of the Alps. Shaped like an upside-down Y, it’s regarded as the most spectacular of the region’s three major lakes, with a winding shoreline that’s sprinkled with ancient villages and exquisite villas.
