    Sometimes there is good food, but others there seems to be nothing good to eat. It really depends on the day. Also, towards the end of the semester, food gets worse...

    The food has gotten better in comparison to previous years, but there is still a lot left to be desired in the resident dining halls. For any given meal, you will find at least one, if not several, of the following descriptions to apply to the food: too dry, too greasy, overcooked, undercooked, too salty, bland, etc. However, they should be given credit for making attempts to expand the salad bar and healthy choices section of the dining hall.

    Two Starbucks, Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf, Pollo Loco, Carl's Jr, Subway, Panda Express, Dominoes, and a couple other places to pick up food on the go. The place to be is the Nugget because you can purchase alcohol and they have events on thursdays put on by upcoming Djs and music performers.

    There are different venues to choose from but they are all fast food places. The convenient and student stores sell yogurt and sandwiches but that's about it.

    Some days have better food than other days. Many people dread Taco Tuesdays.

    The food you pay in tuition is not bad. They serve salad, pizza, and a variety of food in the dining hall. CSULB has alot of fast food restaurants and lots of options between starbucks to El Polo Loco to Panda Express. There is this place called the Nugget and it's a wonderful place to eat food because they have a lot of young students enjoying their meals, its decorative, lots of lights and music, and it's wonderful. The food's great and affordable.

    Great options on campus even if you are trying to eat healthy. Aside from Dominos and Panda Express, the local restaurants and delicious.

    So many on campus. I am not a part of one, but some of my friends are and they are always busy and seem very happy. And they build good friendships it seems.

    From my own experience I say the greek system is fake. No one respects you and it's upsetting because you pay money to be in that organization. You do work to make it grow and set aside study hours but nobody seems to care. Although my experience wasn't the best I learned that you can't put a price on a legitimate and loyal friend.

    I love the greek life here! It's not as prominent as other schools, but the people are cool and it's a great experience for leadership, social skills, and community service.

    Pretty prominent on campus. You see them walking around with their sorority and fraternity shirts and bags all the time. It just depends if you want to be involved or not.

    Many fraternities and sororities host weekly events and parties, some intended to help fund for charities while other events serve to have students socialize among the other members of the rich culture of the student body.
