From a visionary Memphian to a school that carries on his legacy.

Since 2002, the Kemmons Wilson School has carried forward the legacy of Holiday Inn founder C. Kemmons Wilson by preparing students to lead in hospitality, resort, and sport management. Built on Wilson’s vision of accessible, high-quality guest experiences, the School has grown into a nationally recognized academic home for students who want to shape—and elevate—the global hospitality and sports industries.
