The UCSD Student Foundation will present 11 new tables to the Preuss School at a ceremony to be held at 11:45 p.m. on June 1.
Preuss School principal Doris Alvarez will speak at the dedication ceremony along with UCSD Foundation trustee Arthur Brody, UCSD Student Foundation President Ping Yeh and former A.S. Council President Doc Khaleghi.
After the cake cutting, over 100 students, including those from the UCSD Student Foundation, the Associated Students, the five colleges, UCSD athletic teams and the Chancellor’s Organization of Allied Students, will gather to assemble the tables. Helping them will be 40 Preuss School student leaders.
The phrase “”From Current College Scholars to Future College Scholars”” will be emblazoned on each of the picnic tables, which will be used for working and eating.
The tables are a part of the UCSD class of 2001’s senior gift and were designed to compliment the architecture of the Preuss School. They are made of steel grating and are coated in hard plastic.
