    There is good food on campus, but if you want to eat something like Chinese, you'd have to go into town.

    The food is nothing to brag about but it's on regular standards. If it's not for you there are other choices on campus and there is always off campus dining.

    The ARA as we call it (because the company that we do food through is called Aramark) has a lot of variety. I really like getting stackers, a hamburger and chicken sandwich on the same bun. But everything just tastes so bland after a while. I try to eat there as little as possible.

    Okay, the cafeteria food is not the best, however, there are several great meal exchange options (Subway). More importantly, there is always free food at campus cookouts which seem to happen at least every other night and everyone is welcome.

    The food is typical dorm food. Although, the staff try to mix it up at times.

    We always complain about not having enough options on campus, but in reality, there's not much to complain about. Get to know the dining staff - you'll appreciate it around finals when you're low on cash but need the extra espresso shot!

    The food and dining isn't the greatest however it isn't that bad either. This shouldn't be anyone's deciding factor on the school, there are a couple amazing meals here though.

    Greek life is great. But do not get the wrong impression. It is not Animal House, and we do not throw crazy parties. Instead, we form bonds of brotherhood while bettering our campus and the surrounding community. I myself am a part of the Sigma Nu fraternity, and we have engaged in countless community service projects to raise money and help out those in need, like Bikes for Tykes and Polar Plunge. It is definitely a great experience.

    Greek life is enjoyed by nearly 40% of Rose-Hulman students. It's a great way to connect with people of similar interests and values.

    Greek life is awesome. If you're inclined to go greek, go for it! If it's really not your scene, who cares?? Meet the people anyway - chances are 1/2 your friends will be Greek anyway.

    There are 8 fraternities and 3 sororities on campus. Greek life is different here then it is at larger schools, and a large amount of students are involved in Greek life. It is a great way to meet new people, get involved on campus, and really add to your overall college experience.

    Greek Life isn't what you'd find at a state school, especially for girls. It is worthwhile but only if you're into it.

    Rose-Hulman offers 8 fraternities and 3 sororities, on a bit of a smaller, less intense scale than bigger schools. But definitely a great opportunity if you are interested.
