    Abhorrent. Limited choice, low quality, way too high of a price for what it is. I switched this semester to cooking my own meals entirely, which is not cheap on top of the $4,400 meal plan and is inconvenient, considering there is 1 small kitchen for 240 people in my building. Also, the school requires you buy a meal plan until you get into an apartment (maybe junior year, most likely senior year).

    Everyone complains about the food, but that is mostly due to a lack of variety. The food is reasonably good, and there have been some efforts recently to ensure that there is a greater variety available for students. If you really want to know what it's like, visit when there isn't anything planned for prospective students.

    The food at the cafeteria isn't bad, but it isn't very good either. There are lots of options that change every day, but there are some options that stay constant every day as well. We also have access to the PUB, a restaurant style dining center. We can use Coe Cash here if we're too tired of the Cafeteria. (They make a killer grilled cheese)

    I have yet to eat at the school, but the meal plan that they offered me is going to help me a lot with paying for food while I attend.

    Generally, the caf food is pretty good, and there's a decent variety. They even hired a chef to make hot meals. There's also the option to buy snacks and microwavable meals from the Pub with Coe Cash.

    Some days the food is pretty good, but other days everything is just terrible. They do have a pretty wide selection to offer though.

    The food is very good, but there are some days where there are only items that I don't like to eat.

    there are two options for meals: 1) the cafeteria and 2) charlie's pub (the pub). the cafeteria is open mon-thurs 7:15am-8:30pm, fri 7:15am-6:30pm (closed 2:30-4pm). they stop serving hot food between 9-11am, and often close before 8:30, generally at 7:30. they are also open on sat 8-9am; 11:30-1pm; 5-6pm, and sun 10:45am-12:45pm; 5-6pm. the food choices are limited, and often the meat is not cooked all the way. however, you can generally find something you are willing to eat. the pub is open mon-thurs 7:30am-11pm, fri 7:30am-3pm, closed sat, sun 4pm-11pm. the grill is only open for dinner, but sometimes is a nice alternative to going to the cafeteria. the grill food is not really healthy, so try to only eat there maybe once a week. the rest of the pub is basically like a mini-convenience store, mostly food (although they do have batteries and whatnot). it is overpriced, but as long as you use coe cash it does not really matter.

    Decent. Most organizations are based on cliques within the middle-school-like community of Coe, but there are some with better reputations.

    Greek Life is alive and well at Coe. I went through formal recruitment for sororities this year, and while I decided not to join any of the sororities, it was still a great experience. It's an awesome way to meet people and I would recommend that all new students go through rush.

    There are some lively frats and sororities on campus, but they and the rest of the campus are never at odds. In fact, Greek Houses often hold cookouts for the rest of the school, and host other fun events.

    I love Greek Life at Coe. I'm a member of AOII and the girls are so amazing. I really enjoy being involved in the community and being seen as a positive role model. I also love that all the sororities and fraternities get along well and have a lot of functions together.
