    Great food! Moe's Southwest Grill, Chick-fil-A, a bistro, pizza or course everything you could ever want right at your fingertips.

    The food is typically good, and there are a lot of places to eat while on campus primarily in the student center.

    The food isn't bad but it isn't good. It's fair. Its not as good as high-end restaurant food, but its not necessary atrocious. My biggest critique would be that it can tend to be very bland and flavorless, but on the upside they do provide condiments to add more taste. There are at least 5 dinning areas to get food. Fortunately, not every place serves burgers/pizza. The cafeterias tend to have a lot of variety and even have started supplying healthier choices. All in all the food selection is pretty decent.

    For as small as the campus is, the food is pretty good! I'm a picky eater and I can almost always find something to eat in the dining halls.

    There is so much food on this campus, so you better beware of the freshman (or any grade level) 15! Luckily we have an amazing recreational center where you can work out 7 days a week. The food isn't always wonderful in the cafeteria, but we have a restaurants on campus and very close off campus, so you do have variety. The meal plan that we have is amazing and not your average meal plan. You actually have money instead of meals (about $800) that you decide how to spend throughout the semester. It inadvertently teaches budgeting while you eat. It's good stuff!

    The Greeks are pretty active, but they are not the center of the schools social bubble. Anyone can join many different Greek organizations, and there's tons to choose from.

    Greek life is fairly prevalent on Bradley's campus. The majority of the students are pledged/affiliated with a fraternity/sorority in some way. But its not just social Greek organizations that are at Bradley. In fact, there are nursing, volunteering, and other academic based Greeks. The good things about Greeks beside the fact that the freshmen get free entrance to events is the fact that it looks good on your resume and its an excellent way to network once you'r graduated.

    Greek life is about 1/3 of the campus and very involved on campus and off. They are a great bunch of people and have very close bonds, so if Greek life has ever crossed your mind, you should check it out during rush season!

    Possibly the highest percentage of students who go Greek in the Midwest and raise thousands of dollars every year for each house's philanthropy while making a positive impact on Bradley's campus and the Peoria area.
