The Staley School of Leadership was the first on-campus home for Radina’s Coffeehouse and Roastery, opening with the Leadership Studies Building in 2010. Now K-Staters can enjoy Radina’s at three other campus locations. Upon conclusion of the spring 2024 semester, the Radina’s location in the Leadership Studies Building will close.
Our Radina’s location has been a campus staple through the years, serving thousands of coffees, pastries, and lunches. Memories abound of meetings with peers, mentors, and friends, as well as a variety of events that serve campus and the Staley School.
With this closure comes an opportunity to reimagine what the future of this public space could be.
The Staley School invites the campus community to stop by the Leadership Studies Building lobby on Tuesday, April 23, between 10:30 a.m. and 2 p.m., to enjoy complimentary refreshments and share ideas about what this space might be used for moving forward. There will be interactive posters available to provide quick input and a digital survey for sharing even more.
We are asking you to dream big! What types of events, service, food, and business hours do you imagine in this location?
Visit our website for more details about this project, and to take the survey. For questions, email leadership@ksu.edu.
Would be great to have a Tropical Paradise location there! Their menu would be unique to campus.
I earlier contributed the idea of Tropical Paradise. Correction to the name of the business is, Tropical Smoothie Cafe.
