New Starbucks!

Today I got my first look at the redesign of Starbucks, now blessedly open after what felt like a long long closure.  The architecture of the place is the same, but the style of chairs and tables is new.  Gone are the big banquette seats […]


A Peek Inside

Today we are giving you a peek behind closed doors to get the inside scoop on internal processes.  Earlier in July, our incoming first year students self-registered for half of their fall class schedule.  The second half of their schedule is selected for them using […]
