    The food at BW is definitely above average. The meals can get a little repetitive, seeing as how we have the same meal rotation every week, but the quality is wonderful in comparison to the meals at other schools I was looking at. We have three dining halls on campus, and each of them serve something a little different, so you'll find where you like to eat.

    Both the Lang and Union dining halls have great day-to-day specials (stir fry, pasta, Naan personal pizza, gourmet sandwiches, even sushi some weeks!) but sometimes their everyday choices can come up short. Buzzy's is a great place for something different and every now and then they'll have a guest chef come in which is always fun. It's not bad, but can get stagnant sometimes, but there are plenty of places close by to go out if you need a change.

    There are two dining facilities, and both have a good variety of food. However it can get pricey, especially if you love to eat. You pay for what you choose.

    Lots of options, including chef's (ex. sushi) and multiple stations, Buzzy's (sub shop/grocery store), and off-campus pizza from Domino's. The Cyber Cafe and LB's are great coffee shop options as well!

    From a picky eater, I have to rate the dining halls pretty high. There is usually a decent variety of options so if you don't know what you're in the mood for you can decide when you get there. Another nice feature is the pizza places that will not only deliver to your residence hall, but will also let you pay with your meal card. If you're in the middle of studying or just hanging out with friends and don't feel like heading out to the dining halls you can always order in.

    There are many places around campus to eat. There is the student union where the cafeteria is, Buzzy's, the Cyber Cafe, and many other places around campus.

    The food is definitely not the best part of BW. The options are fairly limited and the schedule is generally repeated on a weekly basis. You can live on it, but I wouldn't say it's all that good.

    Food is good but could be more healthful. I have to make careful choices to maintain a healthy weight.

    The Greeks on campus are absolutely wonderful. The Zetas and Phi Mus are the sweetest girls around, and the other sororities are just swell. And the fraternities are full of fun guys, and the Phi Taus are gorgeous (it needed to be said). We do not have the stereotypical frats, or frat parties where everyone gets sloshed and does stupid things, and causes a bad reputation.

    Greek life is very involved on campus and has an entire residence hall with a lot of students involved in Greek Life, and allowing others to join in on activities.

    Greek Life is an awesome way to make new friends and memories that last a lifetime. The fraternities and sororities like to have fun, but they also love to give back to the community as well.

    Though there are only 5 men's and 5 women's chapters, Greek life is great at BW! We do not haze. Chapters will be kicked off if they haze. It is illegal, and it is immoral. There is the opportunity for leadership within each Greek organization. There are opportunities to do service work and Philanthropy. Sisterhood and brotherhood is unmatched in quality. And we have tons of fun at formal dances, mixers, and other great social events!

    It's not what you think. It's not Animal House. If you think you'll like Greek life you'll probably be disappointed, and if you think you won't like it, you'll probably join...

    Having been a part of it after my first semester, I loved it and encourage it. My first semester when I was not involved, you hardly knew it was there beyond the t-shirts with Greek letters or signs advertising events. But after I got involved, there was lots to do and discovered a whole new population. Another thing I love about BW Greek life is that it is so different from the traditional Greek life you see; no hazing, crazy parties, alcohol, etc. Yes, students drink, but there is no crazy beer pong, drinking games, or anything like that, so you don't have to get involved (having said that, all of the fraternities still know how to have a good time!). It is a wonderful experience, and I encourage you to try it, but if you're not into it, you're not bombarded with Greeks and you'll never have to know about it.

    I am a member of Greek life and I think that everyone should be apart of it. Not only is Greek life a great way to network, get internships, and job opportunities, but it is a way to get involved on campus and have the time of your life. Being in a sisterhood is the best thing that's ever happened to me and I know I'm not alone. I am proud to be Greek and I believe everyone should be able to feel that feeling.
