Check out that cafeteria (pictured above)! It’s the new dining spot for the several hundred public school students who attend Charles Village’s Margaret Brent elementary/middle school, and it sure is spiffy… So spiffy, in fact, that it looks a lot nicer than what I remember of the basement cafeteria at Johns Hopkins’ Homewood campus. (I haven’t eaten there in a few years, so they may have installed their own colorful floor tiles in the meantime. But I have a sneaking suspicion they didn’t.)
