Picture this. You arise early one morning in the middle of conference week with one thing on your mind: a picturesque, productive breakfast, a vision that can only be accomplished if your trusty whole wheat bagel with extra cream cheese and iced chai latte are consumed at the perfect place—the green swivel chairs in the Barb living room, the best of the best that campus has to offer.
