Dining halls are a waste of money. The food's pretty good (really good once you figure out which dining hall people's cooking you like), but It's $300 to be part of the dining plan (half off all meals), and even then it they still are overpriced. If you're in McGregor, there's a convenience store in the basement, a trader Joe's about a ten minute walk away, a couple different grocery stores that you can get to pretty easily, and a kitchen in your suite. If want prepared food, the student center is about an 8 minute walk away, and has just as good food at WAY more reasonable (there's a pizzaria, a mini grocery store/sandwich shop, a dunkin' donuts, a subway, and a bunch of ethnic places)
