Aaron Hu
来自中国上海；烹饪艺术应用科学副学士，2018届毕业生
From Shanghai, China; AAS Culinary Arts. Graduated 2018
“我之所以选择国家路易斯大学的肯代尔学院，是因为它是美国最有名望的烹饪学校之一。此外，它位于芝加哥市中心，靠近伦道夫街的“餐厅一条街”、芝加哥艺术博物馆和壮丽大道。我很感激学校对我们烹饪艺术专业学生的悉心教导。烹饪专业的学生可以花费数小时的时间练习刀法或学习如何制作不同种类的母酱。肯代尔学院的主厨讲师思想非常开明，并且随时愿意帮助学生。这里是你开始烹饪事业的理想之地！”
“I selected Kendall College at NLU, because it is one of the most respected culinary schools in the United States. Also, it is located in downtown Chicago, near Randolph Street’s Restaurant Row, The Art Institute of Chicago, and the Magnificent Mile. I appreciate the tutoring for culinary students. Culinary students can spend hours practicing knife skills or learning how to make different kinds of Mother sauces. The chef instructors at Kendall are really open and willing to help students anytime. It is a great place to start your culinary career!”
Arjun Singh
来自印度；烹饪艺术应用科学副学士在读
From India; AAS Culinary Arts
Arjun来到NLU肯代尔学院时已经获得了学士学位，同时，他还有一些在酒吧和餐馆的专职工作经验。然而，Arjun意识到，他需要继续培养自己的烹饪技能，这样才能真正实现自己成为专业厨师的目标。“我选择NLU肯代尔学院是因为它的课程设置和实践课程。另外，学校的品牌知名度很高，这对我未来的职业生涯有很大的帮助……芝加哥有丰富的饮食文化，因此，我特别想在这里学习。这里的人们总是在尝试新的美食，这为我在学习期间提供了很多接触和锻炼的机会。我获得了25%的国际生奖学金（总学费的25%）。奖学金对我这个国际学生真的很有帮助，因为当国际生出国留学时，会有很多额外的开支。”
Arjun came to Kendall College at NLU with a bachelor’s degree already, along with some professional experience working in bars and restaurants. However, Arjun realized he needed to continue building his culinary skills to fully realize his goal of becoming a professional chef. “I chose Kendall College at NLU because of its curriculum and practical classes. Also, the University has a recognizable brand name, which will help me in my future career [...] I especially wanted to learn in Chicago because of its food culture. People here are always trying new cuisines, which can give me great exposure during my studies. I received a 25% International Student Scholarship (25% of total tuition). The scholarship has been really helpful to me as an international student because you have so many additional expenses when you move out from your country to go to school.”
Arjun对于NLU其他国际学生的建议是，充分利用大学时光：“时光不会重来，所以要尽情享受这段经历，但也要合理管理自己的学习时间。NLU是一个可以帮助你成就人生的地方。”
As far as advice that he’d give other international students at NLU, Arjun encourages them to make the most of their time in college. “This time will not come again, so enjoy it to the fullest, but also manage your time for studies. NLU is a place that can help you make your life.”

From Mexico; BA Culinary Arts
Rebeca Narro Perez利用NLU与墨西哥瓦莱大学（Universidad del Valle de México）的合作办学项目，到我校肯代尔学院（Kendall College）就读，并获得了烹饪艺术学士学位。
Rebeca Narro Perez is one student who took advantage of NLU’s partnership with Universidad del Valle de México to attend Kendall College at NLU to earn her B.A. in Culinary Arts.
Rebeca获得了NLU肯代尔学院的奖学金，该奖学金已覆盖学费和生活费。她表示自己很喜欢芝加哥的多样性和热情好客的氛围：“我喜欢这座城市所具有的多元文化，以及当地人的热情好客。这让我有家的感觉。我以前很喜欢沿着密歇根湖骑行，那里的景色美得令人窒息。”Rebeca说，在肯代尔学院期间，她最喜欢的课程是《食物风味论》（Flavor Theory）。她说：“这门课程改变了我对食物的看法。”，“它让我更深刻地懂得如何融合食物的口味和香味，创造出一道色香味俱全的菜肴。”
Rebeca earned a scholarship to study at Kendall College at NLU, which helped cover her tuition and living expenses, and says she enjoyed the diversity and welcoming feeling in Chicago.“I love the multicultural aspect of the city has, and how warm the people seem. It made you feel at home. I used to love riding on bicycles along Lake Michigan, the views were just breathtaking.” At Kendall, Rebeca says her favorite class was Flavor Theory. “It changed the way I perceived the food,” she says. “It gave me a deeper understanding when it comes to combining flavors and aromas to create a great well-balanced dish.”
Rebeca将利用我校提供的校友奖学金（可抵免15%的学费），于今年秋季回到NLU继续攻读MBA学位。We are excited that Rebeca is choosing to use her alumni scholarship - 15% off of tuition - to return this Fall to begin earning her MBA at NLU.

From Saudi Arabia; BA Culinary Arts
“肯代尔学院位于我最喜欢的城市芝加哥！当我第一次接触这个学校时，我发现那里的每个人都非常的热情和友好，学校拥有超棒的学生及职工多元化群体。甚至在开学前，我就已经发自内心的有了归属感……而且，是我的朋友向我推荐了这里”，“我超爱品尝美食！芝加哥有着丰富的文化，是一个值得外出探索的好地方。在这里，各种美食美景和精彩体验，应有尽有”，“这里不仅有可以帮助我打下扎实基础的优秀教师，还有许多教师让我看到真正的厨师水准。一名真正的厨师不仅要具备食物知识，讲究速度和精确度，还要拥有更多难以言表的能力......”
“Kendall was in my favorite city in the world, Chicago! When first contacted the school, everyone was so inviting and friendly, and the school had an amazingly diverse group of students and staff. I had a good feeling and a sense of belonging even before my starting day [...] Also, it came from friends’ recommendations.” “My favorite activity was dining! Chicago is rich with culture and is an amazing place to go out and explore. So much to see, do and eat.” “Aside from the great instructors that had laid down a solid foundation, many showed me how a real chefs carried themselves. It’s not only food knowledge, speed, and precision. It’s so much more than I could describe in words…”
Maher鼓励肯代尔学院的在校生尽可能多地享受这段经历：“希望大家能够沉浸在这段经历中，享受在肯代尔学院的每一分钟。在肯代尔学院的学习经历一直是我今生最珍视的宝贵经历。我真的希望能返校重新体验一番。”Maher现已回到自己的国家，并表示自己也正在努力改变沙特阿拉伯人对烹饪艺术的态度。
Maher encourages current Kendall students to enjoy the experience as much as they can. “Soak in the experience, enjoy every minute there. Attending Kendall was and will continue to be, one of my favorite experiences that I will cherish for the rest of my life. I really wish I could go back and do it all over again.” Now back in his home country, Maher says that he, and others in the field, are trying to change attitudes toward the culinary arts in Saudi Arabia.
