    I don't eat at school so I don't know how the food or dining is. I give it a 4 star rating

    The food is rather good, but there does not seem to be a lot of healthy alternatives.

    The cafeteria food is like any school: sometimes you will enjoy what they are serving, and sometimes you won't. They do, however, always have a variety of choices.

    The food isn't terrible but there is little to no variation. Most food is unhealthy and anyone on a vegetarian diet is forced to eat salad every day.
