    Currently the dining hall is under construction and therefore I haven't been able to eat there. Nonetheless, I have been able to eat in the food court that has many places to eat from like Wendy's, Jin Jong. Papa John's and more. The food is delicious and they have needs for very type of diet. In addition, the campus has a series of convenient stores that one can go to if they are unable to make to to the dining hall for one of the hall sessions.

    There are plenty of places to choose from to eat around campus. Prices are relatively reasonable and options accommodate whether you're in a hurry and need to grab food on the go or want to sit down and eat.

    I always disliked the way the cafe is set up. If you do not use up your meals for the week, you simply lose them which I think is a rip off.

    They have any amazing buffet style cafeteria that has a great number of options for breakfast lunch and dinner. Breakfast is my favorite, from the fresh Belgian waffles to the fresh omelets made to order, you can't go wrong.
