    Our cafeteria is far from good. Rumor is that they are working on the quality of food served. We also have a Chick-Fil-A, a Moe's and a Deli. The Deli and Chick-Fil-A close fairly early and Moe's is very expensive. Sadly, the food experience at ORU is not a pleasant one.

    I am going to be complete honest, the food sucks. That comes with college I suppose. I also do not appreciate that we are required to buy a meal plan.

    With the brand new Armand Hammer Alumni-Student Center (or Hammer for short) dining on campus has just gone from average to excellent. We now have a total of 12 on-campus dining options, and tons of discounts and deals with Eagle Bucks off-campus.

    There are many different on-campus dining opportunities. As far as school-food goes, it's pretty good. There is even a Chick-fil-a on campus!

    The cafeteria food could be better, but jt does have options (such as a bakery, salad bar, fruit, cereal, pizza kitchen, deli, and a vegetarian station). There are also other places like the Deli and Chick-fil-A that are always good. If you'e looking for something light, there is a yogurt/smoothie place that is good too.

    I do not know, but the study of Greek is pertinent to the Bible, there are resources as well as Bibles you can purchase to study definitions in the Greek.

    We do not have fraternities or sororities. But we do have brother/sister wings that do a lot of activities together.

    None. However, each dorm floor has its own name, with a joint sister or brother wing. So, in a way, it is like a Greek life...minus excessive parties. The student body overall cares about their academics.

    We don't have a Greek Life but we do have something similar--Brother and Sister Wings. Every floor or wing of every boys'/girls' dorm has a brother/sister wing/floor/ It's like a mini-sorority or fraternity for everyone.
