What Students Are Saying

There are 3 dining halls on campus, all located in residence halls. The food there is all you can eat for one swipe. Then there is the student union building which has 3 different fast food places, a coffee place, and a frozen yogurt/smoothie place. All of the food on campus is really good.
Jessica from Maryland Heights, MO
There is not much variety when it comes to food on campus. The cafeterias give you lots of food for your money though. Everything is fairly priced in the convenient stores. A nice aspect of the dining service is that they do have healthy, vegetarian and gluten free options.
Jessica from Florissant, MO
The food is not great but the dining halls are nice.
Danielle from O FALLON, MO
Their food and dining is amazing and very tasteful.
X'zaviaun from Columbia, MO
Sodexo isn't the best, but it isn't terrible either! You won't starve, it's okay!
