    I was't a big fan of on campus foods until I moved off campus. I love Sandella's panini's & Jazzmen's Cafe for a quick pick-up during the day.

    Well, there is a lot of health food so I would not say it is entirely appealing. However, there are restaurants on campus that serve delicious pizza and tacos. I normally stop at the coffee shop on campus.

    Upstate has a great cafeteria with a variety of foods to choose from. If you ever get tired of The Caf, you can try out our three other restaurants on campus: Jazzman's Cafe, Subway connections and Sandella's, all of witch have a great food variety.

    I'm not much into Greek life, but I do know that Upstate has many Fraternities and Sororities. There is a no hazing policy for both Fraternities and Sororities, and all groups are nonracial (any ethnic group can join), regardless of the group's ethnic origin.

    From what I have heard, Greek life on campus is a easy way to meet life long friends. The Greek life ensures group study time so that no Greek member is failing a class. There are currently 11 different sororities on campus so there is a sorority for anyone wishing to be a part of it.

    NPHC is relatively new and blossoming into something bigger. NPH is typical as other campuses.
