    Cafeteria food is actually not bad at all! They have a large variety that differs every day...and they are open almost all day, every day! There is also our JBK which has chic-fil-a, Quiznos, and lots of other choices that are delicious!

    The JBK offers needs more options, and the cafeteria is less than appetizing. I hear Eastern New Mexico has a great cafeteria.

    The cafeteria is not the best of food, other than on Thanksgiving and Christmas, when the staffs' real colors shine. Also, breakfast is amazing. They make real egg omelets!!

    I didn't eat much on campus because my house is nearby with free food, but, there's many choices to choose from with new options everyday in the JBK. Also, in the cafeteria there are all you can eat buffets with a lot of variety to choose from.

    The student center has fast food places and the Dining Hall is awesome if you have a sweet tooth! They bake desserts daily and have awesome ice-cream:)

    There is a dining center that the university nicknames the Caf. There is a meal plan there that is a very reasonable price. The food choices there never end and it all tastes amazing. In our JBK there is also a Chik-fil-A, a Quiznos, a hamburger place, sushi bar and place for breakfast burritos. There is also a smoothie place and a little convenience store as well.

    I do not take part in Greek Life, but I am however associated with people who are enrolled. They love every minute of it, have tons of friends, and lots of fun. The fraternities do favors for the sororities and visa versa.

    I was not personally involved in Greek life, but I know a lot of my friends are involved in the greek organizations. It's very intimidating for the girls at first with Rush week, but the greeks provide a sisterhood or brotherhood that is really hard to find anywhere else on campus and they do lots of volunteering for the community. This organization also provides lots of job opportunities later after graduation.

    Greek Life is awesome! There are 5 sororities and 5 fraternities. 3 of the sororities have housing in Shirley Hall. Alpha Sigma Alpha sorority recently joined the Greek life community on campus. All of the frats have lodges or housing. Greek Life is expanding on campus and is a really pleasure to be a part of!
