    The food offered at the dining halls isn't great but there are a lot of options. There is always Kosher food available as well as vegan and vegetarian. There is always fresh fruit and vegetables. There is also Sbarro, Dunkin Donuts and some other places on campus that take your SuperFood card depending on which meal plan you have.

    Some of the dining hall food is bearable, while others, Sadler, is barely tolerable. However, there are a lot of restaurants in the area who deliver.

    The first month and half you'll love dining hall food! But after that it gets old, but no worries! You'll be able to enjoy some variety on Marshall Street.

    The food in the dining halls is extremely high quality considering it is a college dining hall. You have sandwich bars, salad bars, fruit bars, omelet/egg bars, waffle bars, stir fry bars, pasta and pizza bars and so much more. If you get tired of the dining hall, there are tons of food cafes around campus and lots of good restaurants right off campus.

    There is so much food to choose from but if you are not careful you can start putting on weight. It is vital for everyone to watch what they eat. The food here can always be better.

    There are several different dining halls that offer the same food. There is also a late night dining hall on main campus that offers food until 2 am to satisfy those late night cravings.

    Dinning hall food is dinning hall food. It doesn't really matter where you go it will probably seem good at first and then it just becomes blah.

    The greek life is amazing. If you are interested, rush is a great experience for both girls and guys even if you choose not to pledge. There are 20+ fraternities and 11 sororities as of May 2013. Being in a sorority is a great way to get to know people, to do volunteer services and to get connected.

    Greek life is very popular and very fun, but don't feel obligated to participate. There are enough people who take part in Greek life and enough people who don't take part that it won't feel like a requirement.

    SU is big on Greek life. You can't walk by the quad and not expect to see the majority of the students wearing Greek letters. At least that is what it seems.

    Greek life is definitely present, but not everyone I know is involved.

    There is a lot of Greek life at Syracuse however you don't have to be a part to enjoy the activities or be in it at all. There is a good mix and there is also Greek life devoted to academics and other values.
