What Students Are Saying

Being a vegetarian I was extremely worried about what I would eat while living on campus. Luckily, that wasn't a problem. The dining hall has dietary options that are friendly for everyone. Dining options include a salad bar, wrap bar, a grill, a pizza station, the Veg-E-Table, where students can make their own creation with rice, vegetables, and seasoning, and the line which offers something new each day.

Lots of healthy choices and junk food opportunities (on occasion).
Sara from Decatur, IN
The food is AMAZING THERE!!! they have the best cooks to me they even have the Cyber Cafe downstairs. the moment you walk in you feel like it's back in the 80's. but with great food too. So i love the food there it was something new everyday. ALSO, you can write on this wall and tell them what food you like or even love, they will reply back and get it for you. they have a cereal station that's open all day and has a sandwich station,sub station, coffee, tea, and more. remember it's open from 7am-7pm
