The dorms are really nice. Rooms are a decent size, common rooms are awesome, and community life is what you make of it. I live in Drayer, and I am…
Each dorm community has it's own vibe. The school's RAs and Community advisors do a great job of promoting and finding people who are passionate about creating a safe space…
Typical college dorms. Alcohol is prevalent, but the school is combating underage drinking. Legal drinking is not discouraged. Very little if any hard core drug use. …
Food can be repetitive, but there is always something to eat.
Read MoreThe food here is extremely hit or miss. The meal plan system is weird, which consequently gives you limited location options for eating. The cafeteria is a social hotspot, so most students eat there regularly. Most would say that the food relatively hit or miss, but I'd say it's usually pretty good. Across the hallway is the Snar, which offers sandwiches, a salad bar, and quick eats. The Quarry, the student-established coffee shop on campus, recently changed its entire menu, causing slow service and subpar sandwiches, but they have great wings and solid meal exchanges. There's also two juice bars. I'm satisfied with the dining options, but they could definitely be much better.
Read MoreI'm not personally a big fan of the mealplan here. It's all or nothing, with you buying one of three plans that are all the same price, but with varying ways of getting food, or not having one at all. (There is also a reduced price apartment plan, but you have to request that specially and only if you live in an apartment.) This adds quite a lot to your bill, but the food is good. There are four main option to eat on campus with your mealplan: The dining hall, which has it's great days, it's good days, and it's bad days (also home of the Kove which is open Sunday-Thursday with Kosher and vegan food); the Quarry, which has sandwiches, pastries, full coffee bar, pizza, etc; and the Underground (& Juice Box), which has fresh squeezed juice that actually makes a good meal because of all the things you can add, and fresh sushi which is made here and distributed to the other food locations on campus (the Juice Box makes juice as well as smoothies and is located in the fitness center). Lastly, there's the Snar (officially titled Union Station), which has a grill and cooks burgers, breakfast sandwiches, regular sandwiches, and a bunch of other things you'd expect from a grill, there's also a salad bar there and soup. MEALPLANS: Here's a basic rundown. You have two main options: Any 20 or Flex. Any 20 gives you 20 meals a week (Sunday we as a campus embrace brunch), and each meal is a designated 'meal exchange.' For example, at the Underground, you can get a large juice as one swipe (one meal exchange), and the Quarry you can get a sandwich with a drink and a fruit (fruit or wings I think?), and the Snar a burger, etc. You can pretty much get everything everywhere, except for sushi. On Flex, you have three ways to buy food: Flex points, Declining Balance, or Dining Dollars. With Dining Dollars and Declining Balance you get 10% off the food you buy (so they're good to buy sushi with because it's a bit more expensive), but with Flex points, you use meal exchange in the same way as Any 20: a breakfast meal exchange is 2 pts, lunch 3 pts, dinner 5 pts and this is regardless of the actual price of what you are buying. So for example, on Flex, it is cheaper to buy a large Juice at breakfast with your Flex points than a small juice with your dining dollars. Same for burgers at the Snar. Lastly, Thanksgiving is a big deal here. Expect tons of delicious food. (Before Thanksgiving Break).
Read MoreMost days food is pretty good. The worst part about it is that it just gets boring. We don't have a food service, we have chefs, so the food isn't gross, mass-produced in a factory. Also we have a soup chef that used to a White House soup chef!
Read MoreThe food is wonderful, The staff know what they are doing!
Read MoreThe Caf is often proud for the organic stuff that they serve. The food's taste is okay, and I mean, looking at Carlisle's random location, I definitely am not complaining for the variety of food that they serve. I think that most of the Caf's food is really healthy. However, that being said, I prefer the Quarry or the Underground, which serves sushi and amazing sandwiches, when I'm choosing to eat at school. Unfortunately, the food is overpriced outside of the Caf. Outside of the school itself, the dining options are minimal, but a lack of variety does not mean a lack of quality! Definitely not. Downtown, they have a Belgian restaurant, a crepe place, and Japanese restaurant. All of them have really, really good dishes! I have been to a lot of places in the world, and have tried authentic foreign food, and Carlisle, despite the selection, still has the best taste/service combination for their restaurants. I recommend people from out of town to come too.
Read MoreThe dining services offer flexible options for on the go students- from grab n' go to cafes and snack bars to give you a variety. The cafeteria is also on the whole pretty good for the cost.
Read MoreThe food is excellent at Dickinson and there is a variety of places on and off campus to get good food at different times of day.
Read MoreThe food and dining is satisfactory.
Read MoreThere is Greek Life on campus, but you are not judged for being in it or not being in it.
Read MoreIt's here, but it's a small part of campus life. People who take advantage of it absolutely love it, but nobody judges you if it's not your thing.
Read MoreThere, but not a huge part of campus.
Read MoreI'm involved with Greek life on my campus and I love it, but the school is really down on Greek life and make it difficult for us to remain on campus. It's pretty clear they want to get rid of it, but for now it's still there. It gives you more fun things to do on the weekends, opportunities for charity and community outreach, great friendships with people you may have never gotten to know on campus, and
Read MoreThere are many Greek life groups on the campus ranging from social to academic core values. These must be sanctioned by the school, but there is a relatively accessible process to gain approval.
Read MoreTheir admission process is harder than the college.
