What Students Are Saying
To be honest, they could improve the food, but it's not bad considering that they have to feed almost 3,000 kids three times a day.
The food is defiantly better than a lot of other campuses and always has great options to choose from.

dorm food gets old, but sodexo is very good about taking suggestions and applying them to their menu. the staff is extremely friendly and cater to your needs. sometimes the meat is dry and sometimes the pizza gets accidentally burnt, but you can always count on an effort to make it better next time.
