What Students Are Saying

For a small campus, the variety is great. The quality is great as well.
Anthony
The food in the Benedum room is not the greatest, but they do try to make it enjoyable with a salad bar, pizza cooked in a brick oven everyday, a sandwich bar, along with the main entrees, and the access to get a burger and fries for many meals. There is breakfast, lunch, and dinner offered Monday through Friday, and brunch and dinner offered on Saturday and Sunday.
Kyle from Barnesville, OH
Though the dorms may not be the most beautiful things, they sure are a lot of fun!
Brittany from Madison, OH
Decent food except on weekends.
Ashtyne from Keyser, WV
there are many choices on the menu.
Alison from Daniels, WV
It literally is what you make of it. Every couple of weeks there's karaoke and party at the Ratt (University Bar). Also, there are usually a lot of sport games and other activities.
International Student from Venezuela
Surrounded by not only the best food on campus, but amazing restaurants that are walking distance away!
