Good Enough for Most
There are 2 dining halls where you can use your meal swipes, and they're both located on different parts of the campus, so you're never too far from one. There is a basic menu that is always the same so you can be sure that some of these items will always be there. For example, you can always count on the salad bar, pizza, burgers, fruits, grilled cheeses, cereal, etc. It's nice to have these stock items, so if the other dishes being served are not to your liking, you can opt for one of these options. There is variety where many unique dishes are prepared; I tried many things for the first time ever at the dining halls. As for taste, the dining hall has its days where nothing really seems to be too good, but for the most part, I would say it's above average. It's better than what I had expected first going into college. There is a strong effort to use locally grown food to support farmers, or to provide organic/gluten-free options in order to satisfy everyone on campus. There is essentially no limit to how many times you can go up and get more helpings which is nice, but can lead to the dreaded Freshman 15. There is no shortage in places to use flex dollars: Subway, Chick-Fil-A, Mediterranean Deli, 1.5.0., Sushinara, Jamba Juice, and the list goes on...
