Campus Housing at Grinnell College

Darn good.

I live on East campus (Lazier Hall) so some might say I'm privileged with air conditioning, but I think each of the campuses have great pluses. North is right next to Harris and the gyms, East is new, and South has a lot of personality and it's close to the library and Bob's Underground cafe. Based on what I see I'd have to say that halls are most closely knit on South campus and least on East, so if you're looking for a lot of floor companionship, don't request East!! The rooms are very nice and pretty spacious, unless you're really unlucky and get one of the few that are tiny. Communal bathrooms are unfortunate, but hey, most colleges have those. Overall, really good!

Campus Dining at Grinnell College

A

Gooooooood

There are a lot of options, including vegan options. Breakfast choices are sparse but at other meals there is plenty. Try the pizza! And the soup! And the ice cream! And the meatloaf/mashed potatoes! Really, there are a lot of delicious choices at the d-hall. There's also the Spencer Grill or Bob's Underground cafe if you're not feeling like the marketplace one day. Also, all dorms have an oven and microwaves in them if you want to cook.
