Since the closing of Cosi on Main Street last semester, the question of how the space will be utilized has been on students’ minds. A few students share their ideas for the space below:
Yaiqan Edwards, first-year: “I would like something that’s fun for people…put a bar there! Maybe something like a B-Dubs.”
Albany Fridley, first-year: “I feel like around here there’s a lot of expensive places…maybe something a little cheaper that’s a little bit easier for a college student to afford.”
Derek Gulley, junior: “Maybe another pizza place. I love pizza; I think that’s great for college students. It’s affordable, [and] who doesn’t like pizza?”
Destiny White, junior: “Another cup of joe place where you can just sit down, do homework and get something to eat…something more geared toward students.”
Lexi Neider, junior: “A café that’s not really well known…[with] new food each day, what’s fresh. Also, affordable.”
Brandy Mcnutt, senior: “Maybe another restaurant that they can use flex dollars at next year. Something local would be nice…[it] would be a nice alternative for students.”
