    Believe it or not, the food here is pretty darn good. There are plenty of choices, and you don't have to eat at the cafeterias. There are so many restaurants around the area! And a great many deliver! There is no lack of variety, that's for sure.

    There is much to be desired in the food choices here. It is hard eating healthy when over half the items in the food line are breaded. I would like to see more greens, and for a fair price too.

    Augie food is, well...Augie food. It's really hit or miss, but I like more food than I dislike, and by a large margin too. Westerlin and the College Center are the main locations, but we also have a Freshens smoothie place, a Snack Shack, two convenience stores, and a coffee shop all on campus!

    Not bad but you should probably get the meal plan. It isn't too expensive. The food is pretty good and always a lot of options.

    The food isn't really that good, but on certain days it can be great! There are stores in the residence halls, but boy are they costly!

    The food and dining needs to expand and include foods suiting for vegans and vegetarians. Also, the hours are rather restrictive and limited.

    I've heard mixed reviews about Augie's food choices, but I personally love it. However, like most private schools, the meals are a little pricey. It's a good idea to check your meal points at least once a week.

    The food here works on a point system which is good and not so good. As long as you don't pig out every single day the points will last you till the very end. Also, on a few occasions there are buffets that really are delicious that the college sets up.

    What can I say, college food is college food. There is a Starbucks, which is always a plus, and Whitey's Ice Cream is unbelievably delicious! Other than that, you have your standard fair of college cuisine, including cafeteria food, Pizza Hut, and Fazolis (a fast food pasta place). If you have a dietary restriction, you can always find something to eat, just do not expect it to be five star cooking.

    Greek life is big, but only if you're involved with it. There's a service Greek group as well as music ones, and the rest are social. The majority party on Wednesday and the weekends, but it's really easy to stay out of if you don't want to be involved. You're really not judged if you're not going Greek! :)

    Is great! You can become a part of something profound and life changing! Greek life is extremely beneficial in regards to networking and establishing prospective jobs after college. It allows you to complete volunteer work and get involved with the community. Additionally, you will make lifelong friends.

    We have a sizable Greek life, with six sororities and seven fraternities. Unlike in the movies, Augastana's Greek System is open and accepting. While there are rights of passage, there is no hazing allowed. The groups are simply like minded individuals looking for a strong college community. If you are a shy person, than the Greek system is a great way to make friends. Augie's system is know for their superb conduct and strong community involvement. Furthermore, Greek groups allow for leadership and networking opportunities.

    Greek life accounts to about a fourth (maybe a third) of the school but it isn't the end all be all. There are 14 Augustana based chapters (no national groups) on campus, with seven fraternities and seven sororities to choose from. Greek life is awesome and a life changing experience!!

    Greek life is huge at Augustana! It's such a fun way to get involved and meet tons of new people. But don't worry if you're not interested in greek life because there still are plenty of kids that decide not to go greek so you definitely won't feel left out!

    I am not a part of any, but there is a relatively extensive Greek life, although there are no frat/sorority houses on campus.

    Unlike most schools, Augustana's sororities and fraternities are not national and are not recognized by other schools (with the exception of a few national service based frats). However, Greek Life is full and thriving, pledging occurs in the spring, and 60% of Augustana students are involved in Greek Life.

    we have social and service greek groups on campus. we currently have 7 soroities and 7 fraternities as well as many greek honor service groups. these are only local greek groups though, so they are only recognized on this campus.
