Student Responses to Review Topic: Food And Dining

    USF offers students a decent cafeteria with many options. On the average day, you can have waffles for breakfast, pizza for lunch, and Kung Pow chicken for dinner. USF has the main cafeteria in the University Center (which is at the center of the university; you guessed it!), one under the main Caf typically called the Under Caf and one smaller one on the secondary campus. The main Caf has the best options for students as it is the largest. Sometimes, however, students find that they school provided meals could be improved and that it way too expensive. USF gives each student $2000 worth of pure food money and sometimes, students find themselves running out of it a month before the semester ends. Each meal averages to about $10. Simple math will tell us that that is not enough for a semester. However, with budgeting and careful spending, the USF meal plan money should last you through the semester. Sometimes, it is to be noted that the cafeteria sometimes seems to close too early. But, with planning, that should not be an issue for those of you who are savvy at staying fed. Rating: Three out of five. While the food is expensive and the Cafeteria may have odd hours, the food is decently good, convenient, and well portioned. All in all: Spend smart, stay fed.

    Bon Appetit is the catering company that has an exclusive contract with USF; it emphasizes sustainability and healthy diet, through an incorporation of local produce and sensible portion sizes. My roommate selected USF for the quality of its dining facilities and inclusive dietary options. Peet's Coffee is also served on campus.

    New York Strip Steaks anyone? USF also has an entire area of the cafeteria dedicated to the Vegan and Vegetarian student population.

    The food at The University of San Francisco is not too bad. The dining hall offers a fair amount of options. My personal favorite thing is the chicken caesar wrap.

    There were a lot of options in the cafeteria, so it didn't feel like you had to eat the same food every night. There is a lot of space in the cafeteria to eat and spend time with your friends.

    Not much of a Greek life at USF. There are about five societies that I know of that range from business to leadership in the community but they have no houses or special areas. Therefore, USF Greek life is not the strongest.

    USF's Greek Life is service-based. These students represent their organizations on and off campus and actively network with other Greek Life organizations in the Bay Area and beyond.

    Greek Life holds amazing mixers and socials. They're all held at beautiful clubs and lounges located in Downtown SF.

    The Greek life is growing, but it does not play a huge role at USF. The social Greek life is limited, but USF offers many other academic fraternities. USF 's sororities and fraternities provide a smaller, but unique opportunity of sister and brotherhood as well as an overall great experience.
