    It's all pretty good. The key is to understand that you really need to try new things. BUT. If you have food allergies, especially to seafood, do not eat at the Mongol place in Gracie's.

    There is one big dining hall by the dorms and then there are other restaurants and stands around campus.

    There are certain places I like and certain places I don't like but the amount of options you have across campus gives you choices.

    I'd suggest that you avoid Gracies' specials, actually I'd recommend that you avoid this place like a plague. The only good places to eat at are; RITZ Spots Zone, Global Village, and Crossroads. Brickcity and Dining Commons both are ok-ok based on my experience. Sols, Corner Store, and Ctrl-Alt-Deli has too little diversity in selection for my taste but they all have great food. If you want to save money, don't buy food on campus. Just take the bus to Wegmans to buy food from there or from Walmart to cook it yourself (dorms do not have a kitchen).

    Food and dining there is not great whatsoever. Everything cost a lot. A lot. Most of the restaurants in-campus are really bad. The variety of food is non-existence. Eating healthy is impossible.

    The food is good in my opinion. Most freshmen eat at gracies which has food that is edible. They have two special bars that change everyday so there is always something different.

    There are many Frats and Sororities, i was never involved but they stand for good reasons! The Groups are very involved with the University and the student population!
