    Now the dining situation is where they fall off on occasion because they have their good days and bad days at the main campus cafeteria. Although it is always all you can eat buffet the selection is not always something you want to eat. During breaks or close to breaks the food is really sad but you always have the option to spend cougar cash at chickfala, burger studio, or Einstein's it is just a very pretty penny.

    With CSU being a smaller university the selection on campus is huge. You can eat at popular restaurants or the cafeteria, either way you are sure to be satisfied.

    The dining at Columbus State is average. We have a chick-fil-a on campus which is the most reliable food source. We have fried-chicken Thursday every Thursday if the school year which is most people's favorite cafeteria day of the week. On this day they serve more of a soul food type of menu. There is also the Den on Columbus State's downtown campus where they have a full convenience store and hot-orders can be made such as pizza, sandwiches, and a buffet-style hot meal.

    There are a couple different options when it comes to dining. The dining hall offers salad, pasta's, sandwiches, pizza, dessert. There is also a Chic-fil-a and a burger place. We also have Einsteins Bagel store, but they offer salads and sandwiches and of course bagels.

    There are several Greeks active on our Campus. Before I came to college I was only familiar with the Divine Nine, however I have broadened my knowledge on several other fraternities and sororities. Some are specific to a major and others are beneficial for social networking. And, of course there are parties;)!

    The campus has many sororities and fraternities, and they are all too happy to have you! Rush week is so much fun, there are so many activities they have planned. Some of them crazier than others!

    Greek life is big on campus with multiple fraternities, sororities, and honor societies. They host programs, fundraisers, and parties throughout the year, and every fall and spring they have RUSH, which is where potential recruits sign up to be a member.
