Walker College Dean Sandra Vannoy and the Walker College Dean’s Club are partnering with Beans 2 Brew to offer a special 'Beans from the Dean' on Monday, October 21.
Free Coffee on the Morning of October 21
Community members may stop by Beans 2 Brew in Peacock Hall before noon for a free cup of coffee.
The event is intended as a delayed "welcome back" to students after a pause in course delivery caused by the effects of Hurricane Helene. Beans from the Dean events have only previously been offered during final exams.
Beans 2 Brew is a unique partnership between student entrepreneurs at Appalachian State University and Walker College of Business clubs. Each group contributes its specific business know-how, creating a proven successful model with profits benefiting the participating organizations.
The beverages are funded by the Walker College Dean’s Club, an annual giving society that provides unrestricted support for critical college needs, including student scholarships, travel funds for faculty and students to attend conferences or visit corporations, and seed money for new college programs.
About Beans 2 Brew
Beans 2 Brew allows all business majors to be involved in a real business. The idea was conceived and put into action by a group of students from the Association of Entrepreneurs (ASE). Over the years, the coffee shop has grown from a mere table by the stairwell door to a flourishing business with a permanent stand and mini kitchen. In 2016, Beans 2 Brew expanded its horizons by incorporating clubs beyond ASE, including but not limited to the Supply Chain Management Club, Economics Club, and the American Marketing Association. In addition to staffing the coffee shop during business hours, all the clubs involved specialize in their particular field to contribute to the growth of Beans 2 Brew.
