After extensive marketing research, including focus groups and telephone surveys, the cafeteria was renamed and redesigned. Brands like Pizza Hut Express, Sara Lee Sandwich Shoppe and Bagel and Bagel were added to a bistro-style setting to serve students, faculty, staff and guests of the university.
