What Students Are Saying

Food and Dining at SUU takes places in Thunderbird Dining Circle, it's a buffet style dining hall. There's decent choice, but after a while there are repeats as to what is to eat. The times the dining hall is open is not optimal if your schedule does not match traditional eating times. There are small fast food type places in the student center where you can use dining dollars which are part of a meal plan if you want variety in your food.
Bradley from Stansbury Park, UT
The Dining Hall offers something different each day, and if you don't like change don't worry, there's a salad bar and some sort of pasta available everyday. If you have any special food allergies they can and will accommodate you. I personally really enjoy the food. I'm excited to eat at the dining hall each day!
Jenica from Tooele, UT
the food served in the dining hall is.. cafeteria food. it's not great, but it's definitely a lot better than anything you would have time to make for yourself. you get a little sick of it by the end of the year, but if you're like me and you live off campus your second year, you will definitely miss your meal plan.
T from Springville, UT
the new dorm facilities are very nice.
