Everyone is very friendly; however, nothing really exciting happens. The rooms are okay but the older dorms are built a lot like prisons.…
Freshman, I promise the dorms get better as you move up in the ranks! But regardless of the condition of the dorms there are always floor activities going on and…
The dormitories are rather nice, nothing different from a run of the mill dormitory you'd find at another school. It's the people within the dorms that make it great, and…
The dormitories are...interesting. Most of them are fairly old, in the traditional dorm setting. Some of the newer dorms are done in the more modern suite style, and have more…
Some of the dorms are better than others, I know some of them are getting repaired so it'll be good. Overall dorms aren't too bad, if somethings lack, they make…
Food in the Thomas Commons, the only place for dining, is alright. By the end of 2013 calendar year, the Commons will have been fully renovated, offering more opportunities at good food. And the firm that does the cooking, Bon Appetit, is pretty good at what they do.
Read MoreFood in general here is just not that good. This college has had a history of bad food, and all of the companies have blamed it on the facilities that they are in. The truth is, in Iowa, everything just has less flavor. The quality of food is just not that good here, and the school reflects that.
Read MoreThe food has greatly improved since the time I visited last year. My main problem is that at times Bon Apetit seems to try too hard, I think it would be better if they stuck to more basics and gave the option of variety to the students.
Read MoreBon Apetit is our service provider. They are very responsive to dietary wants and needs. We have a full service salad and sandwich bar as well as a grill station and comfort food station. We have pizza, soups, and pastas that are all made to eat. The dining hall is all-you-care-to-eat and has very reasonable hours for a student's schedule.
Read MoreFood is healthy and there is a lot to choose from. The food is not very tasty and some students would like to have some more unhealthy foods sometimes.
Read MoreI eat a lot, and there are a lot of food choices. It's cafeteria food but I can't complain.
Read MoreWe have a new food service this year called Bon Appetit. They are very focused on sustainable practices. For example, all of the eggs served are cage free. I'm a vegetarian and they also have lots of options. We have a comment board and our chef even comments back. Overall, I've been very pleased with the dining experience.
Read MoreI LOVE FOOD.
Read MoreGreek life is kind of a joke to me. All of the Greek groups here are specific to Cornell, meaning if you've never been to Cornell, then you'll never hear about it. I've managed to steer clear of the Greeks here because they think they run the school, and I don't want to get caught up in that mentality, considering that no one else knows about them.
Read MoreI have a number of friends involved with Greek life here at Cornell. Our system here is somewhat different than other schools since none of our Greek groups are affiliated with the national system. This means it's considerably less expensive, and because we're such a small school the group sizes range from about seven people up to nearly 60. (And even if you don't pledge, pre-pledge season is a great time to meet new people)
Read MoreWe do not have nationally affiliated sororities or fraternities so each of the groups is unique to Cornell College, which creates an extremely close community within each of the groups.
Read MoreGreek life here is awesome. 30% of the students on campus are involved in greek life. Each greek group are their own thing. They can range from community service oriented to party oriented and everything else in between.
Read MoreThere are fraternities and sororities on campus. There are unofficial (not nationally recognized) fraternities for some of the athletes on campus.
Read MoreWe have sororities and fraternities but they aren't nationally affiliated. Really, Greek life is nothing like it is portrayed in the movies. They provide a great support system and are lots of fun. However, while many students are involved in it, you won't feel left out if you decide not to.
Read MoreThe Fraternities and Sororities at Cornell College are not national organizations. Instead they are local, centered only at Cornell College, with rich histories that stretch back farther than any fraternities or sororities this side of the Mississippi.
Read MoreThe majority of the groups are pretty small and every group has something different that they offer. Greek groups also make up approximately 25% of the student population.
Read MoreThere are 15 social groups on campus, and none are nationally affiliated. There is no fraternity or sorority housing, and about 25% of campus is involved in social groups. There are a few social groups that choose not to drink as a group. I think the scene here is ideal because it is an option to join a social group if you want, but it is not something you need to do to fit in. Since we have a small student body all students, regardless of whether they are in a social group or not, interact with each other.
