  • “The Dorm life is great. I think everyone needs to have the experience of dorm life because it is stepping out on your own and gives you much more responsibility.…”

    The dorm food is not 5- star restaurant material but there's so many options that you can always find something you want. There's also fast food restaurants like Carl Jr's, Panda Express, and Spoon for when you just don't want dorm food.

    Many options within campus, but surrounded by hundreds of places to eat and relax. There are so many little places hidden around, so it is fun to tour the town around.

    The campus has a lot of options for dining, and the town has so many places to dine it's insane!

    CSU offers a wide variety of restaurants within the Lory Student Center, and is a short walk from many other dining options nearby.

    Lots of options! Just after the first month you have tried everything and are sick of everything. Not much variety in the places to go, but there are a variety of places to go. Food is usually very good.

    I live in Academic Village so I get most of my meals at RamsHorn. I had to adjust my eating schedule a little bit to fit the open times of the upstairs of the hall, unless you fried food or express you have to eat before 7. This was a little different for someone like me used to dinnertime being 7:30 and beyond. But never fear, Braiden, my favorite dining hall on campus, is open later and a great place for lunch since it is close to classes. Sure dinning hall food gets old after awhile and there is no comparing to home cooked meals but compared to many other schools in the nation we have very little to complain about.

    If I were you I would probably opt for the local food. Fort Collins has tons of restaurants to choose from. The dorm food gave me digestive problems when I tried to stick to a meal plan. They do have a decent salad bar though, hence the two stars.

    The food and dining is pretty good. I would say that the reason students gain the freshman 15 is mostly because there are so many options of food and they are all good. It is difficult to eat healthy all the time but it's more about eating in moderation.

    Best part is no disses and they serve breakfast until 1 pm on the weekends. If you do the math though you will find that your paying around $8 a meal...but it is all you can eat.

    United, fun and filled with many interesting people. Being part of a sorority, I definitely will say I have changed perspective on it and it is filled with so many amazing people that are here to succeed like everyone else.

    I am not personally affiliated with Greek at CSU but I think that if you are even remotely considering it than you should go through rush. It allows for amazing networking opportunities and life long bonds. It wasnâ??t the right fit for me but my roommate loves it. You never know till you find out the information, for real not from the movies. I like that many of the Greek organizations donâ??t have houses and are truly focused on service and community.

    Greek Life is very big here at CSU but its not a must. Greek Life adds a lot of fun activities on and off campus and they have great sisterhood/brotherhood.

    I'm not in Greek Life and I don't really pay attention to it. I can't give an accurate opinion on the matter.

    Greek life is all over campus. And although a lot of people think it's not for them, I think at Colorado State University they try really hard to have a diverse group of people involved in the Greek system so they don't fall into the stereotypical assumptions many people make. If you're on the edge about going Greek, I'd definitely give it a shot!
