    There are a few options when it comes to dining. The caf has really good food, but unless your living in the dorms and already paying for it, it is pretty expensive. There is also the Grille, which is like an on-campus restaurant. It is very, very expensive and usually not worth the long lines.

    The dining experience is awesome. The Cafe has a variety of delicious meals (almost like mom's), and the hours fit well with class schedules. Just in case you miss a meal at the Cafe or want something later, the Grille is open with some great food.

    I been to the cafe a few times in my times here at Francis Marion. The cafe is great with alot of varieties. However that's only during dinner. The rest of the times it just the normal. Clean and kept nice is a plus about it.

    The dining hall is always clean no matter what. The food is fair at times, but majority of the time its delicious. Everyone on campus go crazy on Wednesday's because that's chicken day.

    I haven't eaten on campus except for during orientation and the food was great and they had a wide variety to chose from in the cafeteria. They also have an on-site type of restaurant, I suppose you could call it, that has great food, but it's very pricey.

    The dining hall and grille serve dishes that are popular with most college students. They also have healthy choices for the diet conscious.

    I am not very sure about Greek Life on campus. There are no special housing or buildings for members. There are sororities and fraternities.

    Not really big on the Greek Life. Do not get me wrong they are many organizations on campus, but you rarely hear or see them out showing off.

    Greek life at Francis Marion is not that great. Most organizations do not have many members compared to other schools but they are open to new members and open to the campus.
