    It's right in the heart of Downtown Chicago, so there's plenty great restaurants near by. Inside the school itself, there's a few food vendors, but everyone eats off campus.

    There are tons and tons of different restaurants surrounding the school campus, so there's never a shortage of places to go when the hunger hits. And even if any of the options are not to your liking, you're never far from a train, which will take you to a whole other variety of dining.

    Harold doesn't really have much of a dining area. Though, the area downtown has plenty of options to choose from.

    The dinning room is on the lower level, which is always seems to be clean, no matter what day it is. Also, the food it pretty good!

    They make you pay for your food out of pocket. Go to the fast food places nearby, or the grocery stores near the school for something lovely.

    the food and dining at the school is really on the minus side because of the low variety of food selection available for students

    Harold Washington College has a few vending machines around the school. There is no room and board.

    Their are some Greek chapters but they are very small. I believe Harold Washington has one or two Greek chapters. Given the fact that Harold Washington is a junior college and not a university it would have little to no actual Greek life ( non of the Greeks at HWC have their own house. HWC is a commuters school.)
