Picture (25x22, 163 bytes)he tables found in the new coffeehouse were designed by UWSP home economics students. Varying in themes from pop art to objectivity, these tables were designed with material found either on the UWSP campus (Student I.D.'s, a campus man); locally (Point beer labels), or on any university campus (popcorn, a pizza design, buttons or nails.) The student designers created their design on plywood while working in a furniture design course last semester. The plywood tops were then sent to a company in Illinois where they were permeated in a transparent plastic. This plastic process makes the tables very durable and easy to clean. These tables carry the name of their student designer.
