Abstract
Oral history presentation by Clement "Clem" Bernier for an unidentified audience of students, approximately 1977. In his presentation, Bernier identifies himself as a "hotel man" and explains that he has been general manager of the Hacienda Hotel and Casino for a year and considered it a very different challenge to his earlier years in hotel management. He discusses how he became a hotel general manager, the work involved in learning the trade, and the differences between managing a regular hotel and managing a hotel and casino. He also asks and takes questions from the audience.
