Katlyn from Lockport, IL
Bloomington- Normal has every restaurant you can think of. There are lots of places close to campus to eat as well!

The food is awesome!
Shauny from Chicago, IL
Food and Dining are ok. I always enjoy it when my parents send me Home Cooked Food vs cafeteria food. Cafeteria hours are very flexible to accomodate my schedule.
