You'll Find Someone If You're Willing to Put in the Effort

The variety of people on this campus are ridiculously broad. You have jocks, Greeks, nerds, grinds, dorks, thespians, reefers, tree-huggers, religious Christians, atheists, practitioners of other faiths, activists, conservatives, liberals... the whole shebang. Depending on what kind of person you're looking for, you'll probably find it. The number of people on campus is really small, so while there's a big mix of people, guys/gals you would be into are few and far between. However, the Greek scene is decently popular and there are a lot of student athletes, including those from Varsity, Intramural, and club teams. So, if those 2 groups are your thing, you'll do fine. Otherwise, you'll just need to be very patient, persistent (not the creeper kind), and maybe not extremely picky.

Could Do Better

There are two dining halls: Brooks and McKinley's. Brooks is all-you-can-eat buffet style dining with more restrictive dining hours while McKinley's is a standard food court with very flexible hours. Brooks changes what they serve on a daily basis based on (I think) a 12-week rotational schedule. Some of the stations at McKinley's sometimes change things up a bit, especially the Crunch (vegetarian) station.

I have dining restrictions because of religious prohibitions from eating particular foods. This makes me mostly a vegetarian while on campus, for the school does not serve kosher/halal meat. However, during this past Ramadan 2010, they did provide daily dinners containing halal meat for Muslim students on campus, which was great!

If you are vegetarian or have various dining restrictions, you'll have a harder time finding good variety. However, the options are still there and you can always fill out one of the available comment cards if you have any comments or concerns. They'll respond to them quite efficiently and do their best to satisfy your concern!
