What Students Are Saying

well, we have pretty good food at cafe and we do have awesome food at marketplace and rathskellar. =) there is a room for improvement though.
Trisha from Washington, DC
The cafeteria itself and various cafes that are present on the campus are absolutely perfect for the student life. You are welcome to different atmospheres of eateries where you can hang out and stuff yourself with delicious goodies and meals.
Angelica-Jasmine from Plano, TX
95% deaf and hard of hearing students and 4% hearing students. If you want to learn more about the deaf community and improve you ASL this is the place to learn.
Tina from Rockford, IL
We have cookers and it may take a long line to get the food we want, but they are there everyday making sure we enjoy our meals.
LINDSEY from WASHINGTON, DC
Excellent location. Near DC's metro and bus lines.
