What Students Are Saying

The food and dining at CIU can easily be identified to promote a sense of unity and community. There is always different types of food each day that appeal to the diversity that we have at CIU. The dining room has big, medium, and small table to accommodate any size group eating together.
Megan from Columbia, SC
It's great! I work at the cafeteria serving my fellow students!
Amanda from PARKMAN, ME
The dining hall is a pleasant atmosphere for community, and although it seems like a requirement for college students to complain about the food, there is a decent variety and the staff are friendly.
