Student Responses to Review Topic: Food And Dining

    Marquette's dining halls provide healthy and delicious options for vegetarians, vegans, and students with severe or specific dietary restrictions (my roommate is gluten-free and has never gone hungry). There are dining halls all across campus, making it easy to get food fast between classes, and each dining hall offers different food, making it hard to get bored of dorm food. For those living in apartments or tired of eating at the dining halls, there are many restaurants around campus that are cheap and easy to get to. My favorite is Jimmy John's - they deliver late into the night, great for late night studying or the snow storms of Milwaukee winters!

    There are so many options for dining, that are always changing, I never get tired of it. The all-you-can-eat meal plan for freshman and sophomores is more than enough to keep you fueled. When a change in pace is necessary, Milwaukee has some amazing restaurants that reflect the eclectic jumble of cultures that make up Milwaukee.

    As far as options go, you have many! Marquette has an Italian Bistro, sub shop, burrito bar, salad bar, Einstein bagels, sushi bar, 50's style diner, numerous coffee shops, as well as more traditional dining options. The only con is that the plan is pretty expensive.

    There are a variety of food options in each residence hall. There are also restaurants and other dining services available all over campus. The dining meal plan is easy and convenient.

    The dorm food could be better. However, it is not awful! There area variety of options everyday, but sometimes the food does get old. Also some of the dining halls close fairly early which creates some problems.

    While I am not a part of the Greek life on campus, there are numerous sororities and fraternities to join at Marquette. The best part about them is that students that do not participate are not made to feel inferior or that they are missing out. Greek life is there, but it does not dominate the Marquette social scene.

    People who are involved in Greek life seem to love it! But if that is not your thing, don't worry, they aren't a huge part of Marquette's student life.

    This is not big on campus and is more for networking purposes than party purposes. I have heard good things about the greek life on campus though

    Although the Greek life is small, it is still there! If you really want to become involved with Greek life, it is not difficult.

    Tons of people are in greek life. We have houses, but there are a lot of rules that the greeks have to follow, so it's not the typical greek life you see in the movies.
