Posted at September 26, 2012, 7:33 am: "I was raised in the suburbs of Kansas City during the 1970s and 1980s. My parents taught me the importance of hospitality, but not of food or cooking. Dinner regularly consisted of canned vegetables, dry chicken breasts, and cottage cheese for dessert; new or exotic foods did not make an appearance on our table. When I was sixteen I fell in love with a girl from a Cuban family. Her father was a musician, her mother was a poet, and there was always something social happening in their home. Suddenly, new foods were everywhere, and not trying them seemed absurd. For the first time I saw the effect that hospitality with good food had on people; I saw how conversations enlivened and disagreements quieted when chicken mojo and fried plantains were set out. That girl and I went our separate ways to college, where I studied engineering and computer science." This is the first paragraph of my application essay to the New England Culinary Institute. I've been accepted and will be starting school in December of this year. The rest of the essay can be found at http://www.loopback.net/essay.html . NECI has a Next Generation scholarship which allows an alumnus to recommend an incoming student. The scholarship form is a simple web form accessible through the NECI Alumni web page. I would be indebited to any NECI grads who would read my essay and recommend me for the scholarship. I'm also more than willing to exchange email or even talk by phone if it will help you decide.
