furthering my education

I am a culinary student in chicago right now, and i am about to finish with my associates in culinary arts and my dad wants me to finish up my BA at a 4 year college or somewhere that i can further my carrer in the culinary field, i was looking at denver, but i tried to find casinos that have poker so i can supplement my income while going to school full time, so if anyone has any ideas and recomindations that i can look into that would be great
thank you in advance
