    Not alot of fast food places to choose from but the food they cook everyday for breakfast lunch and dinner is great. Eating the food they cook instead of fast food is a great way to stay away from the freshman 15. They also have a great variety and you can always go back for seconds!

    There is a full cafeteria for the student to eat every meal. But if a student is looking for a change in dinning he or she may visit the various fast food chains inside the university.

    The food court there is awesome. There are always themes when holidays are around and different stuff to eat everyday. It may not be home cooked meals but for a college campus the food is quite amazing.

    The dining hall is expensive, and there are not a lot of choices. I paid $10 last week, and my choices were hot dog, hamburger, chicken sandwich, meatloaf, salad.

    The food is just ok. Gets boring after awhile and I wish there were more healthier choices or t least more of a change in the menu.

    The food here is okay but they are good. The only thing that I don't quite like about it is that they tend to have the same choices every week and they'll change it up a little but whenever it was dinner time, i was always in there because they'll serve ribs or fried chicken or sometimes Mexican or Chinese food which are all my favs so they hit it home for me.

    In the Met, where people have there meal plans, the food is kind of a hit and miss. Sometimes it will be good and others times you just don't want to eat. They are pretty good about having a variety of foods, including things for vegetarians. They also offer a full salad bar everyday with a variety of fruits and vegetables to put on the side. We also have a chik-fil-a, subway, and grill works on campus.

    I'm in a sorority and this has been my very 1st experience. Not exactly what I thought it was going to be like, because the older girls are more catty, than helpful. I wish they were more like having a big sister but they're not. Too much into themselves. It's a shame.

    There is currently 3 fraternities and 2 sororities. The Greek life is growing each year, and they are working on adding a new sorority right now. I highly recommend going through recruitment and joining one of these because this is a great way to become involved in the school. Greek life isn't quite as big here as most universities, but its still a whole lot of fun.

    Although I am not a part of Greek Life, I know many people who are and absolutely love it. We do not have fraternity and sorority housing, but that does not stop many students from joining Greek Life.

    I know there is greek life at UT, because they were at the club rush to, but I don't know much about them. I was not in a sorority.
