Being established in 1855, the dorms are a little out-dated and in need of major renovations, which are in order for the future. …
I had the best dorm experience I could have asked for! Each class gets their own facebook page where you can meet incoming freshmen--that's where I met my roommate. We…
There are three choices for Freshman; Ross Hall that is co-ed with separate floors for boys and girls, Schwiterz Hall that is all girls, and ResCo that is co-ed and…
I love my unit. My RA is absolutely helpful in every way possible and is always wanted to be there for the girls. As a freshman, I live in a…
I lived in the co-ed dorm, Ross Hall, my freshmen year. The top floor is all girls, and it was great! THe rooms were not terribly small, and each unit…
The food is gradually improving and they are working to include student feedback more. You have access to many different places on campus, and they are many places around campus that deliver as well. You also get a lot of guest swipes for if any family or friends that go to a different school can come and eat with you.
Read MoreThere are two dining halls, Atherton and ResCo. Both are buffet style. First-year students are required to get an all-access meal plan which means you have unlimited meal swipes.
Read MoreThe food at Atherton is okay. It's not awful and it's definitely edible, but meals are very repetitive. There aren't a lot of choices if you want to eat healthy, so I find myself eating more salads than I ever have in my life. They're really trying to improve the quality of the food, but it's campus food...by nature it isn't luxurious.
Read MoreThe food was typical, probably the worst part about the camp but they give you at least 6 different main course options.
Read MoreI personally do not like the food and dining because I have so many food allergies that I can't eat anything there, so this is a bad question for me.
Read MoreWe have access to a wide variety of food on campus and the flex dollars included in most meal plans allow students to eat for free at off-campus locations such as Hot Box pizza and Chipotle.
Read MoreFood isn't great, but don't let that make or break your decision! Butler is working on improving its cafeterias. They have a ways to go yet, but I've definitely been able to see the improvement even over this past year!
Read MoreThere is a lot of variety with the food, and the meal plan allows for three meals a day as well as $400 to use on snacks, Starbucks, and fast food.
Read MoreFraternity chapters include Beta Theta Pi, Delta Tau Delta, Phi Delta Theta, Sigma Chi, and Sigma Nu. Panhellenic sororities include Alpha Chi Omega, Alpha Phi, Delta Gamma, Delta Delta Delta, Kappa Alpha Theta, Kappa Kappa Gamma, and Pi Beta Phi.
Read MoreDespite the size of the school, Greek life is a big part of the school, although there is no pressure to be in one. We have social Greek houses that are available to live in, but we also have service or career Greek organizations.
Read MoreI'd say that Greek life at Butler is different than Greek life at a lot of other schools. All of the different chapters seem to really support each other, and it's very community based.
Read MoreThere are 7 Pan-Hellenic sororities and 5 fraternities located on campus with houses. One NPHC sorority chapter, the Almighty Alpha Chapter of Sigma Gamma Rho, was founded on Butler's campus in 1922. Greek life is prevalent with activities for students, but partying is extremely optional.
Read MoreOur slogan around campus is that greek life is prominent, but not dominant. I just pledged to a house on campus and it hasn't altered my relationships with those who aren't greek at all. All of the houses are very supportive of one another. Our greek system is NOT the stereotype at all. If I would have gone to a larger school, I would have never gone through recruitment. After seeing all of the houses really get along, however, I decided to give it a shot, and it was a great decision!
Read MoreGreek life is alive and well at Butler's campus with 35% of students living in greek housing. However, it is unlike traditional greek life due to the small size of the campus, and hazing is strictly prohibited.
Read MoreGreek life is huge on Butler's campus. There are 7 sororities and 6 fraternities. But there are also professional fraternities that one could join. The Greek system is highly involved on campus and many of the campus leaders and top scholars go Greek. But you don't have to be Greek to be on campus. There is also a group called Independent that just get together to participate in things on campus without having to actually join a fraternity.
Read MoreGreek life only consists of 30% of campus, but seems more dominant than it is. It is a great way to get even more involved and to create an even more prominent image of yourself on campus! It gives you the opportunity to meet even more people and help in even bigger ways. One sorority helps to raise over $45K for St Jude just from Butler's chapter. A fraternity on campus raises about the same amount for Riley. It helps to make an impact on the lives of those around us, locally and further away.
