    The food is okay. It's delicious at first but after a month, you realize it's all fast food and very unhealthy. It ruins your stomach and takes about a month or two to get used to it. Healthy options are limited. However, there is a large variety of food available.

    I have heard oshkosh has one of the best dining options than other colleges. I think its limited even though I have never been to other colleges.

    During your first few weeks you are going to think that there are so many different varieties to choose from, so don't gain the freshman 15! Don't worry there is a gym you can workout at, that is free! There are different things to choose from such as burgers, pizza, pasta, and they even have meals that are different everyday such as chicken, steak, and casserole. There are also Starbucks available on campus if you just want a coffee or a bagel or both.

    I absolutely can not get enough of the food here. I love the food plan I have and believe me you'll never get hungry at UWO.

    The food took some getting used to! I love the Union food but not the commons' food. I bring food from home and do utilize my microwave quite often.

    The food at UW Oshkosh was better than other schools I have visited. They try to add variety and often have very good meals.

    The food here is excellent and the options are endless. There are many locations on campus where you have food options. Many of them correspond directly with your meal plan. There are options available for any type of eating habits as well.

    The food here is okay depending on what you get. They definitely have a lot of choices for students to pick with two main places to eat, a place to get food to go, a restaurant in one of the dorms, a coffee shop, small convenience stores/places to get food in each of the academic buildings, and a convenience store with more food and other products like toothpaste, cleaning products, and more. With so many places to choose from you are able to get a variety of foods, which really helps especially at the end of the semester. The only problem I have with the dining facilities are how early they close. Most are only open until 7:00 pm each night except for the dining place inside of the residence building.

    I am not involved with the Greek life on campus however I do have some friends that are and they say that it is one of the best decisions they made. Being involved with a sorority or fraternity has opened them up to so many new opportunities and they have met to many friends with similar interests.

    There are five different sororities and five fraternities at UW Oshkosh. They seem to have a lot of fun and are involved in a lot of campus activities such as homecoming, blood drives, and other events. They're easy to join and always up to recruiting new members. Plus, they provide an excellent way to meet new people and make great friendships.

    Solid Greek Life. A few Fraternities and Sororities. All UWO Greek Life is affiliated with a charity/community partner in the area, providing the ability to volunteer and give back to the community.
