    A wide food selection, from tacos to chicken dinners, to Chinese, to pizza. IF you do not like any of those options, there is also an area where you can order a sandwich perfected by your own choices. The university often hosts special dinners in celebration of holidays and different cultures.

    The food is not bad. There are variety. I love breakfast the most. Something I could never get too tired of. For lunch and dinner, there are many stations including the salad bar, pizza, pasta, sandwhich, and more.

    I am not in a sorority but I know plenty of people who are. Not as expensive as many universities and they seem to have a blast!
