Student Responses to Review Topic: Food And Dining

    AMAZING!!! There is nothing to complain about in terms of dining options here as there are several on campus dining halls or alternative locations to go to. Most places allow for a custom orders which allows you to eat as healthy or unhealthy as you choose (although I�m sure everybody will give into their desserts). My only drawback is that the dining hall hours can sometimes conflict with your schedule but a couple Easy Macs here and there will solve that issue.

    They have amazing food! They offer 3 different dining halls, but they also have other places to eat around campus such as Subway and Baja (a Mexican grill) for when you get tired of dining hall food. Also because it is a college town, other things are within walking distance such as Chipotle, Domino's, and other places

    There are a lot of food and dining options on campus and they are reasonably priced. They have anything from donuts and coffee to barbecued pork to pizza and deli sandwiches.

    Greek life here is huge as a large portion of students are involved with it. Most of the activity is contained to one part of campus with Greek row and the previously listed dorms but due to its size you will see Greek members everywhere. If you are not interested in it there is not pressure to get involved but if you are looking to join there is the possibility to fully immerse yourself here. During recruitment you can hear and see which house fits you best and if accepted get the chance to live in one of the gorgeous houses.

    Greek life is what you make it at Mizzou...either you like it or you don't. There are many different types of fraternities and sororities, ranging from band to minority.
