    There are lots of places to fuel up if you're hungry. There are also BlazerBucks which is tax-free credit that we as VSU students can use to buy food from the various restaurants on campus if you aren't in the mood for the cafeteria food. If you are in the mood for a meal, then Palms Dining and Hopper Dining are the places to be.

    Both dining halls offer an array of food so you always have choices. There are also great restaurants like Chick-fil-a, Starbucks, Moes, and Pinkberry for when you want something else.

    Valdosta State University has a large selection of eateries on campus. They continue to add more based on student demand. We regularly receive surveys about campus life, and they really take our wants into consideration. My favorite place to eat on campus is The Loop. You can even use your meal plan to buy Starbucks in the Student Union!

    The dining halls sucks. They have their good days and bad days. Other food places on campus are good. Prices are expensive though.

    There are two main dining halls at VSU, Hopper and Palms, and also small restaurants, like Moe's, pizza, and Pinkberry. They have good food with a nice environment. There is also many places to eat along Baytree Rd so there is no worries about a shortage of good food.

    There are several different styles and choices for dining. However, I myself am a vegetarian and found that most places did not offer a great selection for this picky veggie.

    I myself am not a member of a fraternity, but several of my friends are, and continuously explain how much they enjoy being a part of a brotherhood. There are several fraternities and sororities available to the students,

    The Greeks on this campus represent the elite students on VSU's campus. The Greeks set the standard when it comes to grades and community service. The Greeks are keep the VSU campus rolling as far as involvement goes.

    I am not a part of greek life at Valdosta but there are many choices for students who are considering it. At VSU, you can always see greek activities going on. Everyone who is a member of a fraternity or sorority on campus seems to love it.

    Greek life is very expensive, busy, and is not for everyone, however, it is nice to start off with a large group of friends to help you out!
