    OU's tuition includes your meal plan, so college dining is made easy.

    Not many nutritional or fresh options. Prepare to do a lot of your own grocery shopping, or else eating out a lot.

    I did not really get to fully experience the food and dining, but everything they did provide did taste good. I'm jsut not sure if the school catered it or if they paid someone to do it.

    Although it could be better, the food at Oglethorpe is edible. The food gets worse as semesters draw to a close, but you can always have pizza, make your own sandwich, or eat cereal.

    Food is basically cafeteria food. Our meal plan is unlimited unless you're a commuter, but the food isn't all that great. Our student center is currently being remodeled, so we're hoping the food will get better when there is a real kitchen and cafeteria for the staff to work in.

    The food is pretty good when you hit them on the right days. The cooks are friendly and if you are respectable you can pretty much get what you like.

    The food on campus has gotten much better of late. We have a new dining company that has done a really good job of listening to the students. They are constantly listening to what we say, and changing the menus based on our preferences. That being said, it is a cafeteria so it is not the same as having small home cooked meals every night.

    Ahh Dios Mio, the food really sucks. They are trying to improve it but it normally tastes disgusting.maybe it's because the food they serve is actually healthy food (and locally grown).

    There are a a few sororities and fraternities on campus. In general, they get along and interact with each other. Greek Row is usually the place to be on a weekend night.

    Over half of the students on campus are in a fraternity or sorority. The brothers and sisters on campus take great pride in which fraternity or sorority they belong to, and over all, the greek atmosphere is a very positive one.

    Our Greek Life is growing and thriving. This year saw the addition of two new Greek organizations to our campus. While our Greeks are active and involved, Oglethorpe is a school where you can thrive even if you do not go Greek.
