Student Responses to Review Topic: Food And Dining

    Dining is another area in which UTD has improved over the past few years. They offer a dining hall with meal plans to provide your everyday food needs, as well as a cafe containing Subway, Chik-fil-a, Luby's-like food, and sushi options. A new addition this past year was a food truck that drives to various locations around campus to bring good food to you.

    I am very impressed with the Student Union building. There is Subway, Chick-Fil-A, pizza, and another vendor I believe. Plus there is a cafeteria for the students who live on campus. There are also other restaurants on campus.

    Just like most universities you have the original cafeteria, but UTD also has the comet cafe, the pub, and plenty of other choices for lunch! It is great to have so many different choices instead of the same thing day after day.

    Dining is one of my only complaints, as the food isn't top quality and I would say is not worth the money required to pay for a meal plan, but it does get the job done with a variety of options.

    The Pub is a sort-of on-campus restaurant, and it is good. The Dining Hall, which is like a cafeteria, has poor-quality food. There are a few on-campus, fast-food options, such as Chick-Fil-A and Pizza Hut.

    The dining itself is not really that good,but the food chains are nice especially if you have a meal plan and get free dining dollars.

    The dining hall varies from day to day and sometimes meal to meal on what's reliable to eat, but you can almost always count on the cereal, bagel/toast bar, salads, and pizza--you need something quick, those are most reliable. Be aware of long lines at the dining hall especially at times when it's most likely to be busy (lunch and dinner). The Pub has restaurant-quality food, and is the place to go on campus if you want specialty Starbucks (anything that isn't just a coffee, I think). The Comet Cafe has Subway and Chik-fil-A, among other things, and is where most people who aren't freshman dine on campus; so, you have choices on campus. If you don't want any of that, there's plenty to eat not even five minutes away from campus.

    Greek life is developing along with the school. At one point, it was very inactive, though most people recognize the fraternities and sororities now. Each one has its own unique flavor, which gives students a number of good choices.

    It's not as hardcore as other Universities, but there's still an opportunity to get involved in Greek Life here. Whether it's a sorority or fraternity all about partying, or one about community service and the community,UTD has it.

    There is Greek life, but it doesn't appear to be a huge player. You can choose to get involved in the crazier ones with parties, or you can choose one that focuses more on service and community. Both are available, but it's not something everyone does. It's just an option that works for some people.

    Not really feeling the Greek Life at this university. Not sure whether I'm just not into Frats or whether it's because of the way the people act at this college. A lot of guys (not sure about girls) end up practically changing much about themselves, from wardrobe to personality in order to fit in. Advice: Stick to your own personality and stay original.

    Like the clubs and activities, utd also offers a wide variety of Fraternities and Sororities. They can be a bit expensive to join, but they honestly are the best of university life and hey you only live once. Not only can you enjoy from them, you are also able to get yourself more involved in school activities which always looks good on resume!

    The Greek Life is amazing here. I'm a Delta Delta Delta and I couldn't be happier about going out and rushing. The Greek Life is so supportive of all the other organizations on campus as well as each other.

    Our greek life is a little different from other schools because they don't live together--we don't have greek housing. But, the fraternities and sororities are still very involved on campus and are probably some of the most involved clubs you could be a part of.
