Student Responses to Review Topic: Food And Dining

    So, here's the thing. I have a love/hate relationship with Kearny Hall (which is the cafeteria). I love Mondays because it is fried chicken day, but I hate the surprises they come up with any other day. The food isn't too bad, it just gets tiring after a while. So, its good to splurge on yourself and get some fast food, or go to a restaurant. But, no matter what, you always know that Kearny will be there for you when your funds are low.

    Food could be improved but the food will satisfy you. Dining experience is always loud and on Friday the music starts and the step show begins. We are a liberal arts school also.

    Dinning with us is 50/50, we will always surprise you and have our WOW moments but there are some times when we have the not so WOW moments. Mondays are the best lunches, Friday dinners are great, but for me, i love the weekend brunches.!

    Kearny Hall is the cafeteria at Dillard University. Unfortunately, Dillard does not have fast food restaurants on campus but Kearny serves many food choices.

    Greek life is something to focus on AFTER your freshmen year but they do hold the most social attraction on campus by creating multiple activities and community service for the student body to participate in.

    Our Greek life is looked upon very well. All our Greeks take their sorority and feternities very seriously, but they also have fun.
