Student Author OverviewWhat's This?

Spelman only offers two choices when it comes to dining. You can either go upstairs to the cafeteria or go downstairs for somewhat of a fast food experience. Many students agree that the food is just mediocre. The hours that you can eat are also rigid. You cannot find hot food on campus 24 hours a day. In fact, there is no such thing as a late dinner in the campus cafeteria either. Dinner ends at 6:30 p.m., and if you don’t get in by then, you can go downstairs and grab something to eat at the the Jaguar Underground (the “Grill”). The weekends are the worst. The downstairs option is not available on Saturday, so you are forced to eat in the cafeteria. Within the dorms, you will find that you can microwave meals and prepare quick items; however, you cannot have refrigerators or cooking devices inside your actual room. The good thing about the Spelman meal plan is that it is included in your tuition, and your ID card gives you access and is preloaded with $25 for the the Grill. After that, you have to stock up the card on your own. It seems like the highlights of the week for most students are fried fish Friday, fried chicken Wednesday, and the Spelman Sunday brunch. Other than that, students don’t have much to say about eating on campus. It is safe to say that perhaps this is not one of the strong points of the College.

There Are GOOD and BAD Days

On campus, we have the cafe on the second level and the grill which is located on the first level of our manley student center. Your meal plan can only be used in the cafe. And you get a $25 stipend to be used in the grill. The dining hall has plenty of space. There is a variety of food in the cafe, we have the following stations: pizza, sandwhich/sub , hotdog/hamburger, salad bar, hot line, and a variety of desserts. The desserts are my personal favorite.

Ick.

The cafeteria has a variety of food the majority of the time, however after a while, the food becomes monotnous and you start heading for the Jaguar Underground grill or off campus dining. Inconsistancy across the board.
