Your morning wake up news:

UCD has created a coffee science program, the first of its kind in the nation. (Take that, Hawai'i!)

Not quite farm-to-fork or keeping it local.

College of Engineering just highlighted one of their students who went into ChemE because of the intro to coffee course she took. :cool:

My son is doing a 2-week pre-college program this summer with the coffee program.

I think my daughter has an idea for a project for the new center: why doesn't coffee taste like Hagen Daaz coffee ice cream?

2 weeks of coffee for my son. It was nice to be back on campus today.

This is so cool!
My kids and I did the campus tour last weekend. The guide mentioned "coffee class" often. This made me happy, as I love coffee.
