Students may eat in the college cafeteria which features Taco Bell and a Subway franchise along with a conventional cafeteria food line. Students may also bring a brown bag and pick up snacks and drinks from vending machines or the snack lines. Because there are virtually NO fast food or regular restaurants within quick walking distance of the college, we encourage all students to stay on campus for lunch. If the weather is nice, students may eat their lunch outside.
