    You can find vending machines in every building at RVC's main campus, some food vendors and small cafes in the RVC main campus Student Center, which is convenient for between-class lunch, if your class schedule permits. Nearby restaurants and other stores, otherwise, bring a lunch, especially if you have a full schedule.

    There are a couple restaurants in the Student Center which is handy for between classes or even on the way out for the trip home. They currently have a Papa Johns and a Subway.

    As a night student, I'm a 'get in and get out' kind of person. So, I do not get the opportunity to experience the food and dining offered at RVC.

    There are many food and dining places of all price levels. Most are very close to campus, within 3-4 minutes. There is some on-campus food choices. 3 star.

    They only have a few restaurants available, Subway, Papa Johns, and various vending machines. Most restaurants close ~5pm on campus.

    There are multiple sororities and fraternities in RVC that I am aware of, but I do not belong to one. Occasionally I hear something about them.
