Hospitality education has become increasingly specialized through the conversion of traditional business courses and limiting the generalized education of the learner in an effort to provide a meaningful hospitality-emphasized learning experience. Students who once studied a broader range of general courses are now seeing this instructional model shift to a highly specialized training curriculum. This paper utilizes the educational path of Thomas Jefferson—a man who did not train for a specific job, but instead had a general interest in education—as an example of an effective instructional model to develop critical-thinking skills in learners and to assist them in a successful hospitality-oriented career. The authors also argue that employers can teach students job skills, but hospitality programs may better serve their students by adopting more of a “liberal 3118” instructional model and integrating knowledge throughout the curriculum. Furthermore, this approach can be integrated into the hospitality curriculum in a relatively straightforward manner
