    Food is good and each food item is rated depending on how many calories there are and how healthy it is for a person.

    Cafe DMACC offers hot meals every day, along with a salad bar and lots of refrigerated items. Not to mention, the Student Activities Counsel has $1 walking taco days in Building 5. Yum!

    This school doesn't provide much variety in what you can buy for lunch. The quality of food isn't the worst. The food is a little pricey as it is in all colleges.

    Haven't experience that much yet either. It's my first year and I feel you get in where you fit in. Eventually I wouldn't mind joining an honor society and I am constantly working towards achieving my goal of getting there.

    I didn't really hear anything about it. There may have been people who were part of one or another but nothing that was main-frame.
