Campus Life

Generally good cafeteria food, although it can get boring at times. Stella's in Collegetown is one of the few nice restaurants in the area and it has great coffees and tea.

Cornell has a lot of dining halls and cafes as well as restaurants. Each dining hall has different characteristics. In my opinion, Statler Hall (Hotel School) tends to have better dining options on campus with their salad being legendary.

The food is actually pretty good! There are a lot of dining halls,cafes and eateries on campus. One of Cornell's majors is Hotel Management where they manage a 4 star hotel on campus that serves great food as well

For me, food and dining was great when I visited, but I heard you can easily get sick of it. (Sidenote: Risley has the best breakfast food)

Amazing dining halls at Cornell and restaurants in the area. Locally, make sure you check out Bandwagon Brew Pub and Just A Taste.

There are many options and the food is great!

Whether you're looking for sushi, stirfry, a burger, salad, sandwich, hot meal, cereal, bagels, - you'll find it in the Cornell Dining Halls. We have been ranked as having some of the best college campus food around the country and I can say that I ate in the dining halls for breakfast lunch and dinner my freshman year, thoroughly enjoyed it, and didn't gain the Freshman 15! Additionally, there are many other eateries on campus to go to if you are looking for something other than the dining halls!

There are 2 full all-you-can-eat style dining halls on North Campus, where the freshman dorms are located, as well as a late-night student convenience store. The dining halls offer fresh, local produce and are very mindful of the environment in their composting and going trayless campaigns. Various cuisine types can be found: Asian food, salad and soup bar, sushi bar, and stir fry stations are available daily. Plus the staff are always friendly!

The food at Cornell is amazing. There are times that you will long for horribly unhealthy fast-food as it requires leaving campus to find, but the options on campus are healthy, delicious, and there is something for everyone.

The food is AMAZING. So many options. Vegan and vegetarian friendly

Cornell has an amazing Greek life for those of you who are interested. There are so many fraternities (can't remember how many but there definitely are more than 40) and 12 sororities. Sororities tend to accept more people than fraternities given that there are only 12 of them on campus. They are predominant in a student's social life.

1/3 of campus is greek

eh, I know it exists; I have yet to really experience Greek Life though.

very active

Absolutely the best decision I made at Cornell was to join Greek life. We have over 40 fraternities and 12 sororities. An incredible experience!

Great Greek System!

Unfortunately, I can't give much about Greek Life as I am not a part of it. However, I can say it is very alive here and many about 30% of people I meet are part of a Greek organization. However, there have been several scandals and issues here with Greek groups and racism, so they aren't holding the same prestige as they used to right now.

Very prominent, something like 30% of students go Greek

Greek Life is very prevalent at Cornell. However, involvement is not necessary to have a successful and fun undergraduate experience. Should you choose to participate, however, you will become very close with your sorority/fraternity and create bonds that will last you a lifetime.

There are a lot of sororities and frats, but I don't know much about them. You can't rush them until spring semester though; they don't allow freshman to rush during the fall.
