    The food is not 5 stars but it is definitely delicious! A lot of options from day to day and a lot of vegetarian options for non-meat eaters!

    The dining halls are all pretty unique. Crimson is open late for those late night snacks while Tilly is a meal swipe and all you can eat. There are two on each side of campus with both dining dollar and meal swipe options so choices are available whatever campus side you find yourself on.

    The food is awesome! I tend to get something to eat at the Bear's Den. The Bear's Den is a lounge area that has a Dunkin Donut's and other food options.

    All dining halls accept cash and dinning dollars, but only some accept the dining plan. The food varies slightly depending on the dinning hall attended but it is overall very good for college dinning hall food.

    I was once a part of Greek Life at Bridgewater State University but quickly realized that it was not the type of organization I was looking for. Although the school is trying to develop greek life there is not much of a presence now.

    I am not a part of Greek Life but I have seen many fraternities and sororities around that many students take part in and really seem to enjoy being a part of.

    Greek life at Bridgewater State University is amazing. I am part of Greek life on campus and it really has changed my life for the better. I have met so many amazing people and made so many connections that I will never forget. Greek life students also have a higher overall GPA as compared to the rest of the school. It is not all about fun and partying. We have a strict no hazing policy and each organization has philanthropy's that they support and raise money for.
