The Market House
Great place to go if you do not have a car. It is only a 15 minute walk from campus, fairly cheap ($10-$15 per person), and serves a variety of American food. Connected to an organic foodstore, The Market House is both a local resturaunt and grocerer.

Getting There
The population on campus is predominately white and Christian, but, from what I understand, we are fairly diverse when it comes to our economic background, and political beliefs. As a community, there has been a conscious effort to become more diverse and accepting.

It's College, It Happens
No matter where you go to school, there is drinking and drug use involved. Allegheny is no different. Parties are usually private, but, if you go to one that is open,you do not have to drink. People may offer you something but you can just refuse it. No one will pressure you to drink or smoke, and no one will be offended. Whether you want to drink or smoke, it is totally up to you.
Campus security does not usually bust parties and neither will Meadville police. In the past two years, alcohol poisoning has become in issue. Some students have not been using safely or smartly. It is not because they were forced to drink themselves sick, but because they were not drinking responsibly. Upon enrolling, everyone has to take an online course about drug safety. Therefore, people are not getting alcohol poisoning because they are ignorant.
