At Sinclair Community College, Manager of Student and Community Engagement Matt Massie and Coordinator of SCE Tristan Chaput, and their team held “Coffees from Around the World” on Tuesday  Sept. 3, on the third floor of Building 10, in the hallway next to Academic Advising, an event kickstarting the second week of Welcome Week.

They had two large pots of coffee with four different roasts in total. The coffee they had included Mexican Chiapas, a dark roast, Yukon blend and Tanzania, both medium roasts and Guatemala, a light roast.

There were groups of students and faculty that would come and drink coffee and try each of the diverse flavors.

“This is what I came for,” said Chris Fyffe, a student at Sinclair.

It is a great way to meet new students, or to mingle with friends and talk and enjoy a nice cup of coffee before class. Students would use their own cups to get coffee while others would use cups supplied. A lot of students would grab a coffee on the run to get to class.

“I think it is a great idea. I think they should have free coffee everyday, seasonal free coffee,”  said Isaiah Baker, a student.

Another student, Phillip Rupp said, “I like to see different coffees.”

Most of the students and faculty members that attended really enjoyed the concept of “Coffees from Around the World” and would like to see them do it again for next year. The most popular coffee was the Yukon blend. 

In the last 30 minutes, a bunch of students and faculty members came to get the last cup of coffee before the event closed.
