Let Princeton have its Small World, we U of Cers are getting a Third World

Near Princeton University, right off Nassau Street, there's a charming coffee place called "Small World." It's filled with the sorts of people who'd be in Classics Cafe at the University of Chicago--i.e. many grad students--and its cheerful staff serves a better-than-average version of the typical "yuppie" cafe menu. Despite all the studying going on, the coffee shop has an upbeat vibe and wouldn't seem out of place in Berkeley or even on Cape Cod.

Now, soon to open in Hyde Park, near the University of Chicago, is a coffee shop called "Third World." Third World Coffee will be on one of the slightly less desolate strips of 53rd Street.
