In January 2020, Celia Murillo Amezcua started as a conductor for Unitrans’ double-decker buses. And then the pandemic led to remote instruction and bus service reductions. Last May, the senior became the human resources manager for the student-run bus service. And now she is among those challenged to recruit hundreds of students to part-time jobs still vacant three weeks after the start of the fall quarter and return to in-person instruction.

Updated 2 p.m. June 5: After lackluster response for delivery and pickup options through the website Grubhub, the Coffee House is suspending operations through the summer, hoping to reopen once students return.

“We just haven’t gotten much traction with the concept and assume that the summer won’t be any better,” said Darin Schluep, director of the CoHo. “We thought it would be best to focus our efforts on preparing for fall quarter so we can put our best foot forward if/when the students return to campus.”

Scrubs Cafe remains open for to-go orders.
