Student Responses to Review Topic: Food And Dining

    If I could give it a zero I would. It's run by Sodexo and they most likely put laxatives in the food to keep us healthy. You have a certain amount of dining money to spend under your meal plan and if you want to eat healthy it's going to be expensive. They always brag about their great deals but that's only if you think it's okay to live of of cheap, greasy pizza and plastic bagels.

    The dining halls are clean and big. The food is great, I never have a problem finding something to eat, also each dining hall has different things so if I get bored, I go to another hall.

    Its college food you learn to not expect much. The good news is you can eat it and there is variety . Sometimes if your lucky the food actually taste very good.

    Food is handles through Sodexo, and is a giant rip off. The meal plans are very over priced for somewhat unappetizing food.

    There is Greek life all over, for anyone and everyone. I am in a Greek community that did not require pledging.

    Though BU's Greek LIfe has faced considerable amounts of negative publicity laterly, I believe, overall, that they are positively- oriented groups of people with much to offer propsective and currents students.

    Greek Life is active on campus both throwing parties and putting together charity events but don't join a frat here as the pledging is said to be a little rough and there has been hazing within the greek life on campus.
