1. What does your schedule look like tonight?
A. Honestly, I have plenty of time. I don’t have anything until 8PM.
B. Ugh, I’m swamped. I have lab at 6:30 and I don’t have time to think about eating.
C. I have an hour, so maybe I’ll take a walk.
D. I finally have a break after such a long day. I haven’t thought about food at all.
2. What’s your favorite food?
A. I don’t really have a favorite food. I’ll eat anything–fish, steak, chicken, soup, salad–put it on my place and I’ll eat it!
B. I don’t have time for a favorite food. If it’s quick and easy to make and eat, I love it.
C. Salads! They’re so customizable!
D. Chinese food. Warm, comforting, and soooo satisfying. Pass the eggrolls!

3. What’s your preferred dining atmosphere?
A. I love going with 20 of my closest friends, so we need somewhere with a big enough table to fit all of us!
B. I like quieter atmospheres, like coffeeshop vibes.
C. I don’t mind taking my food to go. Like, on a run! Or post-run!
D. My room, LOL. My favorite places are takeout places.
4. Do you have any dietary restrictions?
A. Yeah. I’m gluten intolerant and I can’t eat red meat. But otherwise I’m okay.
B. Other than the fact that I can’t eat until 10PM most nights? Nothing.
C. I’m trying to eat a little healthier this year.
D. I am so stressed out that dairy is starting to make me ill. So much for late night cereal…
5. What’s your favorite meal at Gettysburg?
A. I LOVE big burrito bar! So fun, and I haven’t exhausted all my options yet.
B. Probably the customizable pizzas at Bullet. They’re pretty fancy.
C. Smoothies! I know it’s not technically a meal, but I love all of their flavors so much!
D. Kazue. It’s not technically on campus, but they take dining dollars, so that counts, right?
If you answered mostly As, you should eat at Servo! There’s plenty of options there for you, and with all that free time you have, you can try them all! And if Servo doesn’t fit into your dietary regime some days? You can recommend new foods on their website, or even request custom meals. They’re here for you!

If you answered mostly Bs, you should go to Bullet! There’s still a good amount of options, and it’s easy to take on the go! And they’re open late so that you can get a bagel, no matter what time of night you need to study.

If you answered mostly Cs, you should go to the Dive! Lots of healthy options for you and your active lifestyle! Or, if you’re feeling naughty, their grilled cheese and tomato soup combo is to die for.

If you answered mostly Ds, you need to get off campus! Sometimes everyday stress requires taking a walk into town. Grab a couple of friends and head to Pings, Kazue, Thai Classic IV, Blue and Grey, and many other options that can give you a break from the close campus life.
