    I must admit, the food in the dining halls are not the best and also tend to be repetitive but they have a campus center where you can find a greater variety of food and better food.

    On my visit I had an all-you-care-to-eat buffet. It was one of the most amazing meals I've ever had!

    Chartwells is pretty good but we are changing providers in the summer. So in the Fall there would be a whole new dining company here

    I would say that the food is slightly above average at best. There are days where they do diversify and have specialties but on an average the food is just good enough to fill you up so you can be on your way to class.

    There is four dinning halls, every quad have it own dinning hall. Besides dinning hall, there is a Campus Center, where you can purchase different foods, and you can have one meal trade.

    I can not really say anything about this subject because i have never been there. I can tell you what i would like to expect. I hope they have wonderful food and i would like for the food to be very healthy. I would also like if they can tell us what they put inside the food because i am allergic to certain food.

    Also living on campus I find that many people including myself are not too happy with the food selections. Some dining halls are rated better than others but I find the opinions are usually bias. I meals usually consists of sandwiches, salads, and pizza. There is a Wendy's on campus that usually draws a crowd. It is also very hard to eat healthy because there is not a lot of options and you may find yourself eating a lot of the same things.

    Greek life is existent on this campus but also not prominent. You will walk around and find people representing their sororities or fraternities and not know who they are because you really don't see much activity from them on campus. There are some that are very recognizable on campus such as Groove Phi Groove, and the Kappa's.

    I am not involved in Greek life but if you join a school approved Sorority or Fraternity it can be a lot of fun for you and your brothers and sisters.
