“I actually loved living in the residence halls! My CL and Hall Directors were awesome, and I made so many friends in my Hall. …”
“Some dorms could be renovated. Baylor is currently building a brand new dorm called East Village. …”
“I loved dorm life! I made many new friends and it was an enjoyable experience.…”
“Unless you're living in Brooks' Flats or North Village (which are pretty darn swanky), you'll have the joy of loud neighbors and community bathrooms. The CL's (Community Leaders) are on…”
“Dorm life for me was okay. It all depends on who your roommate is and where you are living. I lived in North Russell and loved it. …”
As can be expected from a college.
» Read MoreI am not a giant fan of the residential cafeterias, but to be fair, they are significantly better than the ones at most other universities. And they are doing a good job of trying to increase dining diversity within the on-campus restaurants as well as the dining halls. Overall, I would say it is good.
» Read MorePretty average. Nothing special, but nothing too bad. Just make sure not to go to Penland! It's referred to as P-Nasty, if that tells you anything about their food.
» Read MoreThe quality of the food at Baylor is pretty great compared to other college campuses. There is more than enough dining halls to attend whenever you are hungry, and some are open at late hours for those of us who are studying and need a break. There is also available food store if you prefer to not eat on campus that sometimes makes it convenient for the student.
» Read MoreThe food is decent for cafeteria food but you have all of Waco around you so you have a choice.
» Read MoreI give food 4 stars because the food is better than some other schools I have visited. There is always room for improvement, But Baylor's food is pretty good.
» Read MoreWalking around the campus, I was surprised to see all the places there are to eat and dine in. Looking at the different meal plans are a little bit confusing at first, but after reading around they do have a very simple and easy to use dining program.
» Read MoreThe school offers four to five different dining halls on campus, with extra cafes and such around campus as well. Each freshman student is required to have a meal plan and it actually ends up being very useful. The dining halls all serve various different styles of food and usually have a cafeteria/buffet feel. The food is usually very good and offers different meals according to time of day, some closing between breakfast and lunch, and between lunch and dinner. The dining halls, except for one, are closed on Sundays, as is much of campus.
» Read MoreThe student union building has tons of great food choices as well as a variety of restaurants around the campus. Dining hall food is okay, but obviously not a 5 star restaurant, so don't expect a lot.
» Read MoreThere are four cafeterias on campus. Penland is the biggest but has the worst. The other three are all decent, with a nice variety of food. If you have a car you could check out the various restaurants in Waco pretty easily.
» Read MoreGreek life is very prevalent at Baylor; I am not personally a member of a sorority/fraternity so I can't speak from experience, but the friends I know who are involved in them absolutely love them.
» Read MoreI've heard it's great! I didn't rush, but there are tons of options available to rush.
» Read MoreThere is definitely greek life, panhellenic and muliticultural, on campus but not as intense as some other universities. There is not as much pressure to join. There are no sorority or frat houses. So if your're interested in that sort of thing go for it, if not..no worries.
» Read MoreGreek Life is a very large part of Baylor life. It is another way to meet people and be a part of something. While it may not be an option for everyone, it is an option that should be considered because it ultimately allows entrance to other activities such as All- University Sing, one f Baylor's oldest traditions, that is made up of almost exclusively greek life.
» Read MoreI would highly advise to go Greek. It's a great and encouraging atmosphere and everyone will find the place where they belong. There's tons of social events and friends to be made.
» Read MoreGreek life is active on campus. There are plenty of sorority and fraternity events that happen and you always see someone wearing a greek shirt around campus. Rush week can be time consuming but it is totally worth it. You can choose from wanting to be a Panhellenic organization or a Baylor based organization. The options are out there and you can find one that fits your personality and needs best. Greek organizations also put on an event called Sing where each organization makes their own musical skit and competes for top place. The following year the best acts perform again at what we call Pigskin so if you missed it you can see the best of the best next term.
» Read MoreThere is nothing really like it. It's like Greek heaven.
» Read MoreGreek life is a really big deal on Baylor's campus, and a lot of students are involved in sororities and fraternities. They do a lot of really cool events around campus like blood drives, toy drives, balls (dancing & dinner), haunted houses, and different events during Christmas time.
» Read MoreMany options for Greek life .
» Read MoreIf you wanna go greek, there's a place for you here.
