Instruction and Student Services It is recommended that the Board approve the new Associate in Applied Science degree approved and submitted by the District Curriculum Committee. Program: Hospitality Studies: Baking and Pastry Arts Associate in Applied Science Campus: FP Effective: Fall 2007 Impact Statement The Hospitality Industry is the second largest industry in St. Louis with over $2.5 Billion in sales annually. It employs more than 46,000 people in 15 business categories. One of the fastest growing categories in the foodservice sector is the Baking and Pastry category. As foodservice institutions, from local bakeries to huge casinos, look to increase profitability and quality, they are seeking the talents of Pastry Chefs. These employers are in search of professional staff members that possess the basic skills of producing a wide range of bread, dessert, and artistic creations. In response to the need for prepared job candidates and the needs of the current culinary program, the hospitality faculty at Forest Park assembled an extensive advisory committee to perform a thorough Tech Scan and DACUM. The committee consisted of baking, pastry, and foodservice professionals from both local and national companies and concluded there are gaps in the current curriculum as related to specific baking and pastry skills used in the industry. The advisory committee recommended we plug the gap with fundamental, functional skills that are used in everyday operation of foodservice companies. The AAS in Baking and Pastry Arts will allow students to gain the necessary theoretical and practical knowledge to become a successful pastry professional. Concepts of baking theory and nutrition; breads, rolls, and bakeries; production pastry techniques; and cake production and decoration will lay the foundation for essential pastry-related skills. Advanced classes in artisan and decorative bread; ice cream and frozen desserts; chocolates and pralines; contemporary plated desserts; and showpieces and confectionary art will allow specialized training in specific areas of concentration for the aspiring Pastry Chef. The final course, Dessert Buffet Presentation, will give the students a real-world simulation of what to expect upon graduation. Board Meeting 12-20-07 revised (Board approved 5-17-07) 1 AAS Hospitality Studies: Baking and Pastry Arts With the creation of a new degree option, some economic imposition to the college is expected. Since daily classroom activities revolve around production of food product, the operating budget for food-related supplies is expected to rise steadily as the program increases enrollment. The creation of the AAS program in Baking and Pastry Arts is essential to the partnership of industry and education. St. Louis Community College is dedicated to meeting the needs of the community; this dynamic program will create an accessible environment to develop the leaders of tomorrow’s pastry frontier.

The contract also provided for three (3) one-year renewals. This award was made based upon a 10 percent commission paid to the College for snack vending with no subsidy required for food service.
