Fair but Can Be Scary

The school is in a nice area, there are apartments for the students and also the area is beautiful at night and by the water. There have been a few assaults and attempted robberies around the apartment complexes and the lots however.

Gallivan Blvd's Windy City Pizza

Windy city pizza is one located on Gallivan Blvd. They have good food, although some of the staff don't even know where the University is located or that it even is close by. There are no student discounts. It is a convenient place to go to, but the food is expensive as well.
