    The World Famous Bean is buffet style with multiple stations open. There is always one option I found appetizing, and, though it was hard to avoid the dessert bar, it was alright finding healthy options. People with allergies may have a hard time. Bean Bucks may be used in various food places around campus like Starbucks and Chick-Fil-A.

    The World Famous Bean is really not too bad. I have been to other university cafeterias and it is gourmet in comparison. The sandwich and omelet lines are your best bet!

    ACU is home to the world famous bean and it is delicious. It has 5 different food stations every day and other choices from around the world. One day Asian food, next south american. Each meal is amazing.

    The food at ACU is not great, but there are a lot of options so don't worry about not being able to find something you like. The cafeteria is usually decent and the restaurants on campus are always pretty good. You definitely will never go hungry here.

    There are those not so great moments in cafeteria dining, but the World Famous Bean does a very good job at offering variety and at least something to eat at all times that it is open.

    The food is good and not like most cafeteria food, the menu changes every meal, every day. The staff is nice and completely helpful. I've gained my Freshman 15 already!

    The main dining boutique is the cafeteria, the World Famous Bean, offers a multitude of dinning options all day long (including a grill, an international line, and a vegan line).

    The cafeteria is known as The Bean and there are chefs there who cook the food in front of you. They also have Chick-Fil-A, Einstein's, Quiznos, and Starbucks on campus.

    I probably will not pledge, but pledging is not allowed until sophomore year. I think this is really great to allow freshmen some time to grow on their own and manage their own time before becoming a part of a club.

    While we do not have Panhellenic Greek life, we do have social clubs. Social clubs are much like sororities and fraternities, but they are Christ-centered and they are more like a very close family then anything else. You do have to go to rushes and you have to go through pledging to be in one, but it is 100% worth it.

    There are no sororities or fraternities at ACU. Instead, there are social clubs. They're very similar, but the campus has more regulation over them than if they were national chapters. There is still pledging and club-specific events, but there is no Greek Row.

    ACU does not formally recognize fraternities/sororities. Because ACU is a private institution, they have social clubs. I will state no more as I have a strong negative bias towards all types of social clubs.

    The campus police are fantastic. They are always nice and helpful whenever you have need of them. Just beware: they ARE real police, and they CAN pull you over and give you a ticket. Also, watch out for the unexpected stop sign on Campus Court.
