    On campus dining is very good, Chick-Fil-A and Subway headline a nice array of dining and food choices all over.

    The food and Dining at TAMUCC is great, either it being a deli, vending machine, or the University Center their are lots of choices to choose from. Best thing is having Starbucks and subway on campus!

    This university has chic Fila, Subway, Starbucks, a burrito restaurant, and a student cafeteria. They also sell food and drinks in the bookstore. For a small school, they have decent selections.

    The food and dining could use a little help but they are building a new dining hall for next year so I am sure that that will improve a lot next year. For the most part I really don't use the food and dining because I live in an apartment with a kitchen so I cook a lot of my food or buy food at the grocery store because it is a lot cheaper.

    Subway. Chic-fila, a few cafeteria venues, and that's about it. All other food and grocery are found off the island.

    There are quite a few selections to go Greek if you are interested in joining a fraternity or sorority. If you would like to become a part of something greater than yourself and be with people who will help you be a better person and succeed then Greek life might be for you. Going Greek is a way of having a brother or sister that will lend you a helping hand anywhere you go.

    Well, there's tons of Greek Life, that's for certain. Not too sure if they really understand the meaning of sororities/fraternities here, though. It sure is different than the sororities/fraternities I'm familiar with back in my hometown of Austin.

    I went greek and absolutely love it. I honestly was thinking of not doing it, but they are very involved not only on campus, but in the community as well. Many of the Greek organizations do put a huge priority on grades so to me that was a huge plus. They do help other greek organizations as well and get more involved on campus.

    I do not plan to be a part of the Greek Life, but my brother is part of Kappa Sigma, and he says that it's great. He was able to find something that suit him.

    There are many different houses to choose from and if you're like me you look at the movies and see the Greek Life System where they are just fully of stuck up preppy people that are just kind of there, and that's how you think they really are in really life colleges. But here, they are really easy to get into, and everyone is so friendly. Also every house does something different, some do charity work for cancer and others for diabetes, they serve a real purpose.
