    North employees perk up at Espresso meeting 

    Chef Tim Banks and Sandra Curry at the Staff Espresso meeting.

    North campus employee Sandra Curry recently coordinated the monthly Staff Espresso meeting, held in the Chablis dining room. The regular professional development meetings provide employees networking opportunities.

    The guest speaker for the meeting was Tim Banks, a culinary arts instructor at the North campus. Employees enjoyed tasty treats prepared by culinary arts students, while Mr. Banks discussed the history and different types of chocolate. Chef Banks also provided a taste-testing session with three types of coffee (light, medium, and dark) and discussed the history and caffeine content in each type.

    Each of the three campuses has a designated Staff Espresso coordinator, who selects speakers and topics for each month’s meeting.
