    There are many great restaurants and fast food places around the campus and most are within a mile or so. There is a Taco Bell, Subway and McDonald's directly across the street from campus and two lights down you have places like Applebee's, Chili's and Olive Garden just to name a few.

    Dining is expensive, but you are surrounded by nearby restaurants that do a whole lot better. And the food isn't all that good.

    The Galley. A bit expensive. But, so is Starbuck's, huh? The Galley is in the new student center, which is a very cool place to kick it.
