The Linda Novey-White Lecture Series was created to celebrate, recognize and honor the amazing contributions that Ms. Novey-White made to customer service and the hospitality industry.
Locally, the University of South Florida Sarasota-Manatee’s School of Hotel and Restaurant Management benefited tremendously through Linda’s involvement as a founding advisory board member for the program.
The Linda Novey-White Lecture Series Endowment at the University of South Florida Foundation will fund one lecture annually, featuring keynote speakers known for their experience and leadership in the advancement of best practices in customer service.
Be a part of the exciting future of the USF School of Hotel & Restaurant Management. To learn how you can make a gift to the USF SHRM Foundation, please contact the campus advancement department at (941)359-4632.
