Prix Fixe Dinner 2012
Culinary Arts program ends their year with a course designed to give the student firsthand experience of operating a catering operation. The student will learn the dynamics of working in a group in order to successfully plan, advertise and execute a series of prix fixe dinners. Emphasis will be placed on menu and recipe writing, product ordering and receiving, operating within a budget including the management of food costs and portion controls, scheduling, and effective dining room service. These dinners account for 50% of the students final grade. Diners will be asked to grade students on several areas of each course served.
THREE dinners are planned for 2012. UCC Culinary Art students work hard to plan and prepare dinners as their final project of the year.

JOHN & JEN presented by Centerstage at UCC
A truly original musical that takes a look at the complexities of relationships between brothers and sisters and parents and children, set against the background of a changing America between 1950 and 1990, JOHN & JEN is a gem of a show brimming with intelligence, wit and beautiful melodies. This is the story of Jen and her relationships with the two Johns of her life: her younger brother, who was killed in Vietnam, and his namesake, her son who is trying to find his way in a confusing world. With a cast of only two people, JOHN & JEN is a tour-de-force for two actors who take them from childhood, through adolescence and beyond. A chamber musical, JOHN & JEN is a musical about connections, commitments and the healing of the human heart.
