A big welcome back to local café owner Michele Wong. The proprietor took a hiatus from the biz after six years at Café Pallino on SE Division Street. Old School Coffee will be housed in the southeast corner of the college’s new Library. With the start-up of interior construction students, faculty, staff and nearby residents can look forward to enjoying an espresso, taking a study break or visiting with friends in the new cafe early in the New Year.
The college is excited that it is also currently negotiating with several other local merchants to fill the retail spaces along the east side of the Southeast Campus Student Commons.
The future site of Old School Coffee in the new Library will face SE Division Street to serve the campus and surrounding community.
