    The cafeteria has a wide selection of foods throughout the day. We also have a sub and grill cafe which is open most of the day and later in the evening. If you don't feel like walking to the cafeteria, you can always cook for friends in your kitchen apartment!

    The food could be better.and it has gotten better this year and I feel they will make some more improvements in this area. Union has state of the art gas grills for student use available. There is a good variety of off campus dining.

    Like all college dining, the dining at Union is definitely not moms cooking. Considering that it is indeed college dining, I would say the food is pretty decent. There are adequate amounts of food choices, so almost everyone is satisfied in one way or the other.

    The food and dining available is adequate. Meal plans are designed to make it easy on the student and the parents. There is a cafeteria available that has several different cafe type set-ups so you get a wide variety of options. They also have a grille area, made fresh to order, where you can get diner-style food if that's your preference.

    They have both a cafeteria with a variety of food that ranges from decent to good, and they have a cafe-like place next to the cafeteria that also runs on the meal plan that has excellent food. There's also a coffee shop as well that has great, low-priced coffee.

    I am not involved in Greek life, but some of my friends are. They stay very active and have lots of fun doing stuff all the time.

    Union is one of the few private Christian colleges that have acknowledged Greek organizations.

    I am currently involved in the Greek life at Union University. There are 3 fraternities and three sororities which comprise Greek row: SAE, ATO, LXA, XO, ZTA, and KD. None of the Greek houses offer boarding. Approximately 25% of the students that attend Union University are involved in Greek Life. There is a VERY strict no alcohol on campus policy since it is a Christian college and the Greeks here strictly abide by that rule.
