Does the institution have a student-run enterprise, such as a cafe, through which students gain sustainable business skills?:
A brief description of the enterprise:
CPS Café is a unique food service business open to the public. Dietetic students operate the Café and experience all aspects of food service operation and management. CPS Café offers the best natural and organic foods. The menu focuses on healthy eating choices. The food is sourced from sustainable local farms and the café uses sustainable practices in the operation.
The Central Wisconsin Environmental Station (CWES) manages a sustainable garden; produce is used in their dining services operations. CWES also installed a chicken coop to house chickens for on-site egg production.
