Student Responses to Review Topic: Food And Dining

    Even though it is dining hall food and it is not always the best, it has gotten much better over the past few years. The students sat down with Mets, our food supplier, and told them we would like better food and they listened. Along with the dining hall there is also the Cougar's Den which sells made to order food such as sandwiches, pizzas, and chicken fingers.

    The food has improved over the past year but it still need work. Sometimes it is always the same such as pasta. Also, they do not provide a lot of healthy choices. However, they have expanded on their salad bar and made a vegetarian/vegan section. They are open to options and ways to improve students are not satisfied.

    This part depends on where you go. I don't really care for the cafeteria food but we have a little den you can go to that has really good food all the time. The den is the place to go for great food.

    I am skeptical about the food because I keep hearing it isn't that good. Every time I have visited the school the food has been fabulous and they have had a good variety. The faculty said that the food is good and they eat it, so I am assuming it can't be that bad.

    The food is pretty good. The school recently redesigned the one lounge and it looks so nice and the wait for food isn't insane. They have many food options from salads for chicken to pizza. And the food staff are very kind.
