Café-bakery gets a name

The votes are in!

Heidelberg’s soon-to-be café and bakery has its name and identity, thanks student response to a naming contest that ended on Friday.

The weeklong contest was organized by Student Senate, which received nearly 100 potential names. The list was narrowed to three – The Heidelbean, Cornerstone Coffee House and Siggy’s Coffee Corner – and more than 600 students cast their votes online for the winner.

And the winner is … with 423 votes (65 percent) … The HeidelBean!

Congratulations to junior Jimmy Jacobs, who provided the name. Jimmy will receive a $100 gift card for nominating the winning name.

Work is progressing on the café and bakery and is expected to be completed some time near the end of the semester.
