The food consists of pizza, salad, burgers, and fries, all of which is absolutely delectable. There's plenty to choose from, and it's definitely guaranteed you will be going back for seconds.
» Read MoreThe food is not that bad. As a freshman, I didn't really know what to expect. There are changing options but also options stay the same. After a year though, the food is just tiring because the menu doesn't change a whole lot.
» Read MoreThere are lots of dining choices. Valparaiso has founders, which has all of your basic home meals, there is the cafe which has burgers, fries, and pizza all for a quick meal to go, and grinders, which has coffee and pastries in the Library for late nights of studying.
» Read MoreThe food is good, but can get a bit repetitive, and there aren't a ton of on campus food/dining options.
» Read MoreThe food overall is very good. However, it does get a little old after a while. I can definitely say I cant wait to go home and have my moms food.
» Read MoreThe food and dining is okay. There isn't a lot of variety, but most of the variety comes from the big cafe called Founders. It's not too much to talk about, but since I know how it used to be Founders is a step up.
» Read Moredelicious!
» Read MoreCampus Cafe, Founders (main cafeteria) and Grinders (like Starbucks). Cafe has pizza, chicken strips, sandwiches, fresh fruit, smoothies, coffee, tea, bottled drinks, cases of pop, frozen dinners, pizza rolls, bread, PB&J, chips, even soap, shampoo, and other essentials. Founders always has pizza, pasta, and our own version of Subway. Also a Mexican place, burger place, salad bar, and more home-made section. Food quality is pretty good, no major complaints.
» Read MoreThe food is actually really good. There is a variety of choices and they do accommodate anyone with food allergies or have special dining needs. I work in dining services and everyone is extremely friendly. There are plenty of healthy options as well.
» Read MoreFood is disgusting after a while. A lot of saturated fat. But all colleges are like this.
» Read MoreValpo offers a Greek Life experience for those willing to partake in it.
» Read MoreI, myself, am not a part of Greek life but I know several other peers in Greek life. The girls and guys I know that are involved love it! They say that it is fun and enjoyable! There are also music/theatre sororities and fraternities, so there are also plenty of options in Greek life as well. Although some fraternities and sororities have been getting investigated because of suspicious activities of hazing and drugs. Valpo takes these things very seriously and are quick to act upon things like this! The Greek life has improved overall because of the seriousness of discipline Valpo has taken.
» Read MorePopular. Great way to Network.
» Read MoreA large majority of campus is Greek Life and it is a great opportunity. The woman and men in Greek Life are not like anything you see in movies. They are respectable people that do philanthropy and have fun. No one is forced to join or will be looked down upon if you dont join.
» Read MoreThere aren't a lot of fraternity/sorority options for minorities either. There frats and sorors that we have a predominantly Caucasian, but they try to be inclusive of everyone.
» Read MoreGreat for everyone. If you want to go Greek there are plenty of fraternities and sororities ready to recruit, or if you don't that is perfectly acceptable too. No hard feelings either way.
» Read MoreGreek Life is amazing here at Valpo. No one is excluded. Actually approximately 80 percent of the students at Valpo are a part of Greek Life. Even if you're not a part of it you are always welcome to any activity that they are sponsoring. Greek Life is also very strong in its volunteer work.
» Read MoreI'm president of my fraternity. It's the only reason why I stayed. However, I still think the Greek Life is pathetic however. Literally every single event has to be documented and alcohol free. They just make everything much more difficult than it needs to be.
» Read MoreGreek life is big here although not everyone is a part of it. You do not need to be a part of greek life to have fun. I am not a part of greek life and still have friends in greek life and still have fun on the weekends.
» Read MoreGreek life is very important here and there is a well formed bond between the sororities and frats.
