Campus Dining at University of Puget Sound

The four places to get food on campus are The SUB (Student Union Building), Diversions Café, the Oppenheimer Café, and the Cellar. The SUB has above-average college food. The sandwiches are good, and there are a lot of options: Italian, Asain, Mexican, Vegeterian, Grill, FullFare, Sandwich Station, and fully organic salad bar. Diversions Café is a joke---it takes forever to get a coffee. Oppenheimer has really friendly staff and fast service. Get coffee, cookies, wraps, and other snacks here. The Cellar is amazing; great pizza and junk food.

A surprising number of UPS students belong to the Greek system, but it really doesn't play a huge role in the social scene. Besides the occasional parties and social events, the Greek system really isn't that important on campus. The system has definetly even declined since I enrolled in UPS.

Typical student at UPS: Female, jeans, geeky with a possibilty to be attractive if she tried. If you're looking for really hot good-looking people, don't choose UPS. The girl-to-guy ratio is really clearly different. If you are a straight guy, there are a lot of options.

Parties on campus really vary. There are a few good big frat/soroity parties each year. You can find a party basically anywhere on any weekend. There are limited clubs in Tacoma, but the bars are pretty good. I like the Engine House 9, Ferrellis, and The Matador.

Rainy most of the time. September has the potential to still be very warm here. Don't bring an umbrella---it shows you're new to the area. Bring coats, jeans, sweats, sweatshirts, tennis shoes. Some people get dressed up for class---we judge them. Don't forget to bring some nice attire for dates or job interviews.
