    Very nice choices and options. Not only is there a food court area with things like pizza, chick-fil-a, and sushi but there is also a cafeteria. A added plus is the Starbucks on campus which is a favorite.

    We have this thing called dining dollars where you can order pizza from Papa Johns, go to Chik-fi-a on campus, Burger Studio, and an Asian place! We have 1 dining hall and building a new one and the new one will be open for 24 hours. The Z-6 is all you can eat.

    UWG offers a number of dining experiences, from the campus dining hall to more popular food and coffee chains, there's something for everyone. Good food for a quick snack in between class as well as numerous choices for those who choose to live on campus.

    Greek Life at West Georgia is probably the best thing about the school. Becoming a part of the greek community offers a great support system and the opportunity to get to know people who share similar values as you. Greek Life also provides leadership and involvement opportunities for interested students!

    Greek Life is wonderful whether you're a guy or a girl. The fraternities and sororities all get along with each other. It can get a little pricey but usually the finance person in your fraternity or sorority will help you with it.
