    The main dining commons is top-notch. You swipe in and the cafeteria-style dining hall is all-you-can-eat goodness! There are also many other options for food all over campus, including Starbucks and Dunkin Donuts to fuel my studying sessions.

    Dining is great first semester, can get repetitive and go down second semester, but is great for those with food allergies and most of the dining have great hours and good choices.
