Campus Life

the school itself has 3 good restaurants. one is a cafeteria style place, with excellent gourmet chef created dishes. the other is more of a cafe, with great sandwiches, hot meals, and starbucks coffee!! off campus, there are numerous good restaurants really close by: burger king, taco bell, and mcdonalds are all close by, and there are three great chinese places nearby, too. as well as a subway, an new fancy italian ($$) restaurant, and several independent gourmet places up and down us41.

There are two main dining places on campus: a buffet-style cafeteria called the Hammond Commons, and a café style place called Brickman Café. The options and variety are great at Hammond, but the quality can go up and down from week to week, especially during finals. Brickman is consistently great, but there's less variety: there's basically 15 different sandwiches on rotation, 4 soups, and other options will come up every so often.

I did not have a meal plan, but I have been able to go to the cafeteria a handful of times to eat. The food is typical college cafeteria food.

The commons don't usually have great food. Sometimes it's phenomenal, but other times it's just plain disgusting. Brickman has really good sandwiches though. The meal plan isn't that great.

Avoid the cafeteria at all costs. You could get healthier food at the Burger King across the street.
