    There are a lot of different dining areas that are close to campus. Some of the popular restaurants that are close by are: Good Girls Go To Paris Crepes, Wasabi, Detroit One Coney Island, and Slow's Bar BQ. There are also a lot of fast food places that are nearby like Domino's, Jimmy John's, etc. Greektown and downtown Detroit have a lot of good restaurants also. Most of the food in the city isn't super expensive also so it's good for students on a budget.

    One word: EXPENSIVE. It's not unusual to throw down more money for food than supplies if you have a meal plan and live in the TC.

    Cafeteria food is alright, way better then in High school! There are also many resturants nearby that are really great if you choose to go off campus.

    The food is moderately cheap, but if you commute, you definitely want to pack lunch/dinner. However, the food they have at the school is rather good. Except the sushi. Avoid the sushi at all costs. If you commute like I do, and you forget to pack a lunch/dinner, your ID will act as a credit card with a $300 limit on it. Use it sparingly, however.

    A little expensive for on campus dining but its pretty great tasting food. There's a lot of restaurants off campus as well. Some actually give you little discounts for being a student at CCS.

    Although the Taubman Center campus requires dining dollars, it is optional at the ACB. The food is pretty good and you can easily get full. Though the prices may be on the more expensive side, it's definitely a life-saver if you don't know how to cook.

    The grill at this school can be quite disgusting most of the time. The sandwiches are so greasy, that I don't even touch them. The snacks and fried food aren't bad. They also have sushi, which is perfectly fine, but I will not eat it unless it is fresh from that day. The salads also aren't bad, and they have decent snack food.

    Decent food; it could be better for what we pay for the school, but it is not as bad as many other colleges I have visted and witnessed.

    On campus dining is very limited. 2 cafeterias, neither very large or full of options. Only one is open on weekends and neither are open past 7:30 pm. Also, DO NOT get a huge meal plan (I don't get one at all). You can't possibly spend that much in the cafeteria and what you don't use goes to waste at the end of the year. You can load your student card with money and it works just the same as dining dollars without the commitment.

    i don't have a meal plan, so i cook most of my own food. having the option to do that is great, but if i am running late, the food in the cafeteria is really good too.

    There are parties in the area with Wayne State kids who live in apartments and CCS students who live off campus also. Because of school rules and policy you can't have booze in your dorms rooms or anything like but you can find it close by if you know people who party. A lot of times students at CCS are so busy with their work they don't have a lot of time to party, but you will get opportunities to go out when you really need it. You can organize a group of people to hang out at the bar or something like that, they usually don't ID in bars in Detroit.

    There is no Greek life, but we do have our departments. During Geek Week, which is our equivalent to Home Coming week, we have department competitions. One of them this year was an Oreo licking contest. I don't know who won because I had to go to class, but I was rooting for EA.

    There isn't a Greek Life, though your classmates in your major will seem like your sorority/fraternity since they tend to stay in their own little groups.

    Non-existent. The Greektown Casino, however, is right downtown. ;)
