    You go through and pay like you will in the real world - no open buffet. But everything from the make-your-own waffles to the ice cream machine is to die for!

    Though some complain of a lack of variety, I'm pretty satisfied with the food at Gordon. There are always the safe options at every meal where you can eat if you have no other choices - the grill, sandwiches, pizza, pasta and salad. Otherwise, the main courses are usually very good - steak, steamed veggies, fish, casseroles, and more. Specials are always good, like paninis, pad thai, burrito bowls and soup in a bread bowl! You'll always find something you like! The only downside is that the hot food line options on the weekends are a little repetitive.

    There is usually a variety of good food being served, but there are a few things to watch out for. Many people don't seem to like the various chicken dinners, but I haven't found a reason to complain (yet). Some things are REALLY good, but for the most part it's just a little above average. Watch out for the hours, though.

    It was all right. It doesn't really compare to food from any other colleges I've visited, but they have some good stuff. Fro-yo and peanut butter & marshmallow fluff sandwiches :D They have flags hung up in the dining hall to represent every country, which is really cool. There's a lot of options for food, breakfast, lunch, and dinner, and snacks throughout the day.

    Seems okay. They always have several vegetarian options but could use a little more variety.

    We're a dry campus: no Greek life here! (Unless you want to count the Biblical studies majors brushing up on the ancient language!)

    There is no fraternity or sorority life on campus. However, for certain majors there are programs that invite juniors and seniors of high academic standings to be apart of.
