    Overpriced with limited options, many of them not very healthy. Go across the street to Ikea and get a free breakfast on Mondays, or a huge slice of pizza for $2, or one of their other awesome offers of great food.

    Food starts off good in the begining of the school year at the University Center, and it continues to worsen as the year goes. The Wabash Building has had good food this year.

    Due to the 2 yr college I was under the impression all cafeterias suck. Well it's just not true. We even have Chinese food, Starbucks with discount, salad bars and freshly made pizzas, BBQ...u name it! I'm super impressed.

    The school food is fairly decent. Most students just stop and go to restaurant chains located near the school before going to class or during lunch to get a more filling meal.

    Not the greatest. This school is not a traditional school. So don't expect much.

    Greek Life each organization has a different set of values philanthropy & service, leadership, and friendship. In addition, membership in a fraternity or sorority extends beyond your college years; joining is a lifetime commitment.

    There are some sororities and fraternities starting up at Roosevelt, though I really can't say much about them. http://www.roosevelt.edu/CSI/Orgs/Greek.aspx
