    The food on campus is great. They have a good variety of things to eat. From the fast food places to the cafe. There are also surrounding local restaurants.

    The food is great here! You have so many options to choose from. If you are living in a dorm, you have to get a meal plan. If you are like me, 5 foot 2 inches and cant eat your weight every single meal, you can always buy other people's food with your flex and show love to the people that maybe can't afford lunch at the TMB. It is a little expensive, but you have to pay it considering you live in the dorms. But breakfast in the cafeteria on the weekends is by far the best! It is delicious!

    Oh man, the dining hall has some of the BEST food!! It has never tasted like lunch room food. Hopper Dining Hall has everything from your mama's home cooking, to soups and salads, and even steaks sometimes! The Dining Hall also has special events where you can get breakfast at midnight, or a full Thanksgiving meal! There is also a Chikfila on campus, which is awesome!!

    If you live on campus and have a meal plan its great. I have the 8 meals with 350 flex and I can eat anywhere on campus. Several friends have the block 70 meals and 650 flex and I never hear them complain... the only thing is the meals only apply in the Dinner and the Cafe. You have to use flex everywhere else on campus. The food is usually very good and everyone can find something to eat.

    I plan to join a Delta Sigma Theta sorority at JSU this summer, There are many others to be involved with though, including 5 sororities and 6 fraternities. I already know I am going to enjoy it.

    I am not apart of Greek Life yet, but from what I have seen from the outside looking in, they look like they have a great time. I love the bond they share.

    Greek Life here at JSU is so awesome! I was a part of Zeta Tau Alpha for my first semester. I loved everything I got out of it. While It was not something I continued in, I still recommend going greek for anyone that is interested. You learn so much that prepares you for the real world and you get a bunch of incredibly sisters or brothers for the rest of your life. You have a ton of fun making floats for homecoming or participating in different types of pageants held by the other sororities or fraternities. Because JSU is a smaller school, the chapters are not huge and that way you can know every single one of your sisters/brothers so much easier that you would had a large university.

    I am actually in a sorority on campus. Greek life here is not like it is at other schools. Here we are like a family. We support each other in almost everything we do.

    If you choose Greek Life, you will make friends that will be in your life forever. Each chapter is involved in cheering on JSU's sports teams and philanthropic events. If you want the best out of your personal college experience at JSU, I encourage you to join a Greek chapter.
