Universities with…”Is It Food?”

Bad food can ruin an evening, and even though college students infamously eat anything and everything, bad food every meal, every day is still hard to stomach. Campus dining halls, where hard-working young people are supposed to nourish themselves, sometimes serve little more than pizza and caesar salad that the staff buys in bulk. With the standard held in generally low esteem, it’s really something to be the worst of them all.

Each year the Princeton Review publishes its “Is It Food?” list, ranking the top 20 universities with the worst food. The list is compiled with a student survey question: “How do you rate the food on campus?” Over the past six years, 41 schools have made the list, and only four were listed every year, making it seem like those must have a outstandingly bad food.

Just as many of the schools that appeared on the “Best Campus Food” list also appeared on the “Happiest Students” list, many of the schools here, including the US Merchant Marine Academy, US Military Academy, US Air Force Academy, and US Naval Academy, also appear on the “Least Happy Students” list.

Here are the schools with the worst campus food:
