    The cafeteria could improve. When you live in The Village, like I do, you have the option of having a 10 meals/week plan because you have a built in stove and oven.

    Tired of school cafeteria food? Have no fear! YHC's dining hall is an eating experience beyond measure. I love eating here. They have a great selection of foods every single day, ranging from taco pizza to sushi in the international section, to fried chicken and potatoes. They also carry vegetarian choices as well, an added bonus!

    The food can vary at times. The dining staff is very friendly and can even remember you by name! The food is most times great but if you get tired of the same old, there are many places to eat off campus!

    The dining facility is labeled as an antique, but just like the academics, Young Harris College is already approved a new student and civic center that will have top star dining.

    The food and dining at Young Harris could be improved. The school brought in new food management my freshman year. The food however still leaves much to be desired.

    the food is tolerable, and sometimes they even have really good food. Sometimes it is almost impossible to find anything healthy to eat aside from a salad from the salad bar (which gets very old because it's the same romaine lettuce and toppings and dressing every day).

    Great options in the dining hall and with the electronic card system they have going in to get food is super quick with no hassle.

    Greek Life at Young Harris has a mold of its own. A lot of our greeks are local chapters and we have recently added two nationals, Zeta Phi Beta and Kappa Sigma.

    I haven't participated in Greek life on campus, but I have heard that the many sororities and fraternities are something not to be missed out on. And not to mention, the dances they put on to raise funds are awesome! And some fraternities even sell Chik-Fil-A biscuits every Friday morning!

    Greek Life is amazing on campus. All of the Greek organizations on campus are locals, so they have stronger bonds than Nationals do.

    There is only one national fraternity on campus. There is also local fraternities and sororities at Young Harris. The school Greek life system could, and needs to be improved.
