    Macon coffee is good, the food in town is good, the food in Estes will eat you unless you eat it quickly. Occassionally, the vegetarian cuisine is okay but usually not. I can't vouch for the non veggie food, but I hear it's the same.

    Every night the cafeteria has something different and usually it is really good. Options are given for any type of pallet from vegan to meat lover. Unfortunately some food does not taste well or is not made properly.

    Not many colleges have gourmet dining; it's difficult to cook for so many people, and have it be fantastic every time. Randolph-Macon tries to cater to different dietary needs. I am vegetarian, and sometimes it can be difficult to find food I can eat, but there is usually something there.

    Although, some people may say that the food in the dining hall is decent, I definitely can not agree less. I am being completely honest when I say that I have managed to not eat a single meal at the dining hall for a full 3 months. I would rather just pick up a quick meal from Macon-coffee, than eat a large quantity of food that I would qualify as sub-par.

    There are lots of restaurants in Ashland because it is right next to the Interstate. However, they are mostly chains and the only unique ones are expensive.

    The food is very bland and hurts your stomach at times. It takes time to adjust. The staff also are very rude for no apparent reason.

    The Greek life is very big on campus, 26% of students are members of a fraternity or sorority. The Greek groups are extremely involved on campus from community service to leadership positions in other groups. The Greek life is an importnant part of Randolph-Macon.

    There are several fraternities and sororities on campus. I am not familiar with them, but that's where the parties are every weekend.

    The Greeks are not very influential. They don't hold functions very often and don't appear to play their part in the community. But you can always catch them at a party.

    R-MC has 3, well technically 4, sororities, and like 7 frats. Not including academic or service frats. They like to party on the weekends.
