What Students Are Saying

This semester we only have the cafeteria because they closed the cantina. The cantina was good if you wanted something other than the normal cafeteria food. The Cafeteria is not the best food i have had, but is definitely not the worst.

The are many dorms that are affordable. Highlands have recently build new dorms that are very beautiful and comfortable.
