    The food could be better, it is too healthy. A normal hot dog or grilled cheese would be nice once in a while.

    Most of the time, the food is really good! I say most of the time, because I can be a picky eater. Pretty much every time I find something that I enjoy. They make a conscientious effort to make healthy foods, but also have some delicious dessert. Like ice cream!

    Bon Appetite, or the Bon, is pretty good overall, but they do have their off days. The Bon always offers a vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free option which is so nice considering most campuses don't do that. The Bon for Sunday dinner is to be avoided, but other than that the food should be fine.

    After being here for a couple weeks before school, I would say that the food has got increasingly better since last year. Although many students complain that they continuously eat the same thing everydayâ??you teach yourself to get creative. Make ice cream sandwiches with the cookies. Learn to make sandwiches with the chicken served for dinner.

    The cafeteria can be a little sketchy at times, but there is always something edible there, even if it's just cereal and a banana. The buffet option is great, has a good salad bar, and burger Fridays and chicken strip Saturdays are pretty great.

    The have a cafe on campus called the Bruin's Den. The food is fabulous and reasonable. There are many items on the menu for around three dollars. Meals are all under six dollars.

    People complained about the food, but I have heard much worse stories about food in other colleges and universities. Lunch was always good and there's always a big enough variety of food you're bound to find something you like.

    There isn't any Greek life here at George Fox, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. Personally, I enjoy the fact that there aren't huge parties every week. I like that I won't run into somebody completely drunk. I don't care for the stereotype of sororities and fraternities, so for me George Fox is a good fit. I won't constantly run into any crazy people, be judged, or pressured as much as I would somewhere where there is Greek life.

    There is no Greek life on campus, since it is a Quaker college they don't want a sense of inequality spread on campus. We are so small anyways that we don't really need one.

    We have no Greek life on campus, it goes against the schools living contract or stands. They want everyone to be equal.
