    There is a reasonable amount of variety in food. I have to say most of the food there is pretty unhealthy, but can still find something that isn't too bad for you. Furthermore, there are many places to out to eat such as qdoba and noodles.

    The food gets to be the same after spending a few months here. Don't get me wrong, it is phenomenal and very good. It would be nice to change it up a little more and serve healthier things for people trying to watch what they eat.

    The way the food is set up is by paying individually for everything you chose to eat. This is great because you don't have to use a buffet credit like some schools have. Also, then you don't have to use them up before the next semester the money on your card rolls over to next semester. Which reminds me, you panther card is your life line. This is how you get food and how you swipe in to the dorms and get on the bus.

    They have Greek life here on campus but it isn't as intense as other schools. I know that they aren't allowed to have houses here but I think that they are still awesome to join.
