Describe the dorm life at your college.
Personally, I've never experienced dorm life first hand considering i live off campus but from my friends experiences they had a lot of fun. College for Creative Studies is in a great place downtown next to everything imaginable. If you want to go to the school library to study it's right across the dorm rooms and if you want to take a stroll at an art museum and catch up on history lessons it's just a block away. Everyone on campus is incredibly friendly and if you need help in any way from academics, getting a ride back to the other side of campus or trying to figure out the coolest sushi restaurant in the area people all around campus are happy to help.
Describe the food and dining at your college.
I usually bring my own lunch and dinner to school but if I don't i usually head over to the dining halls. The food there is reasonably price and surprisingly good. If you want healthy food such as salad, yogurt and sandwiches they have many options you can choose from. If you're the type of person that needs caffeine for an all nighter and maybe a bag of chips just in case you get hungry they also have many options as well. Hours are convenient for everyone and it's really nice running into someone in the cafeteria and enjoying your meal with a group of people.
What’s there to do for fun at your college?
There are many things to do for fun around campus and off campus that is school related. There are many creative labs at school to work at and just enjoy being around other peoples company.
