    The DC (Dining Commons) could be better, but it's not the worst. It's buffet style and you can pick anything you want to eat. Pasta, salad, burgers, sandwiches, etc.

    There is a large variety of food in the Dining Commons. Some people do complain that the food is not as high of quality as they would like, but I rarely have trouble finding something good to eat. There is everything from a personal pasta bar to a corner grill to a health food section to a home-style food line and there is always a fruit and salad line open.

    There are few options on or off campus. On campus there are two main places to eat: The DC and The Grille, and while they do have some variety (and they're getting better all the time), it can get a little tiring. There are very few options in Upland, although within a 10-20 minute drive there are more and better choices.

    The cafeteria food is good but can get repetitive. Ivanhoes is down the street, however, and is absolutely amazing.

    There is only one major dining commons with a small grill place for those who can't make it to lunch. I like our dining commons, but sometimes the food can be scarce depending on the day. You become very creative with your food creations.

    It is college food at a small university. The food quality is much better, with a health food corner, pasta line, sandwich line, pizza and mexican, great salad lines, and fresh made meals. However, 3 stars because only one location to eat until senior year, where an additional small grille in the union is available. Also, only one meal plan until senior year. But not expensive.

    The food at Taylor's cafeteria is okay. The variety of food there gets old after a while. There are some chain restaurants like McDonald's, Pizza Hut, Starbucks, and Subway within a 15 minute driving distance.

    The dining commons provides a wide variety of food. Students may mix and match meals, selecting from international foods, pasta, a Mexican bar, salads, a deli bar, and more.

    There technically are not set sororities or fraternities on campus but there is a special bond that grows between those in their select Dorm Wings. At meals, the unspoken seating is with one's Wing, surrounded by their Dorm but mingling is always encouraged (except with tables filled with surly/uncouth Freshman still in High school sophomoric mode).

    No Greek life, per se; the closest we have to a frat is the third floor of Samuel Morris Hall, playfully called the Brotherhood (BroHo).

    While Taylor does not have a Greek Life, they pride themselves on providing many other student activities to take the place of Greek Life. Dude Week, Nostalgia, Night, and Melon and Gourd are several of these such events.
