College food. I grew up with my mom's homemade cooking, so nothing will ever compare!
Read MoreThere are two dinning halls, Commons and Knollcrest. They both have hot lines, but Commons has a pizza section and Knollcrest has a *fantastic* sandwich line, in addition to an allergy/gluten/vegan section. I'm not too picky about my food so I can always find something good to eat.
Read MoreCalvin's two main dinning halls, Knollcrest and Commons, are fairly decent. There are several options, but the food does get boring after a few years. Their rice was always terrible, but the desserts (made by the Calvin bakery) were always really good. Definitely got the freshman 15.
Read MoreCalvin has two dining halls, one of which was just recently remodeled this summer. For someone who is not very picky, Calvin has good options. If the hot line does not look as appealing, both dining halls have two salad bars, a sandwich bar, a pizza bar, and a special line unique to each dining hall (one has a taco/burrito stand, and the other has a wellness bar with someone cooking your order right in front of you). Therefore the beauty of the dining hall is that there are many options so it is close to impossible to go hungry during meals.
Read MoreThis is an area of a little bit of conflicting opinions. I believe the food was great and there was a good bit of variety, but some people complained about the food with differing opinions (though if you get every meal at the dining hall for two years in a row, I imagine many places would start to feel bland after that period of time). Don't go to Calvin for the food itself, but I think you will enjoy the food enough.
Read MoreNot the best food, but you definitely have a lot of options and can eat healthy if you chose. You have to remember they are making food for a ton of people, so it is fine with all things considered. I personally like making my own salad or going down the vegetarian line and customizing my meals. You can also order sack lunches online and pick them up during the day, which is nice when you have a tight squeeze between classes.
Read MoreThe two dining halls are different enough to provide a good variety of food, depending on what you want. Overall, the quality of food is good; however, I have noticed it improves on special occasions, such as when the parents are on campus.
Read MoreThe food is okay. It's better than high school food and there is a variety of foods you can choose from.
Read MoreTwo dining halls. Commons has more asian food. Knollcrest has good icecream.
Read More2 dining halls - constant competition. Will you be a Commons or a Knollcrest fan??
Read MoreI'm not greek, nor do I have any greek friends, so I cannot comment on how those who are greek conduct themselves on campus.
Read MoreNone...but the dorm life is so tight knit that you won't even miss it.
