What Students Are Saying

I was actually shocked at how good the food on campus was when I first arrived. It definitely makes the meal plan worth having even if you don't live on campus. The options are often both healthy and tasty, and they do their best to include at least one meal option for students with dietary restrictions every day (vegan options, gluten-free options, etc).

It might take a while to get used to the food, but it's really good.
