I took a first-year seminar that was structured around food cultures, taught by this incredible German prof who was one of the main organizers of Philly Slow Food. We ate & drank SO MUCH good stuff as part of that class, and I credit it at least in part with my decision to go into specialty coffee.

If you're in Central PA and missed the first session, I'm running another one! Come play the political matrix game that my students and I designed and fill out a survey.
This one is on a weeknight evening to accommodate more schedules. I will once again have snacks!
