John McCain Is Older Than Chocolate-Chip Cookies
And being the old man that he is, he'd surely scold you for your atrocious grammar. "Here's"? Come, now.
College Dining Halls Go Upscale to Lure Students
It's the same at all of those schools. I'm at Dartmouth, and it's truly ridiculous.
The Best Frozen Custard
Because you didn't have exact, equal samples, I won't take this as an affront against Wisconsin, frozen custard, and God.

Beard Papa is a point of contention for Wisconsinites. WE will take French pastry and make it even more unhealthy, thank you very much!
Fish-Fry Fellowship
Wisconsin, though not largely Catholic, does them all year and, thus, the best.

@GhaleonQ: You are, of course, correct. How 'bout this:
Original: "Everyone has that one person they call when they need a restaurant recommendation. Who do you call?"
New: "Everyone has a go-to person they call for restaurant recommendations. Who's yours?"

Seems there is now a theme-song for this thread:

No matter which side of the election you are on, I think this will give you a chuckle!

I wouldn't vote for him, but I am disturbed that ageism remains one of the last bastions of acceptable bigotry.

I agree, anado. It should look like this:

College Dining Halls Go Upscale to Lure Students
I chose my second year dorm based on the food. Alas it went to waste because I didn't factor in the awesome Korean restaurant right across the street. It's siren song caused me to spend money I didn't have and forget about the dorm meals I had already paid for.

Oh, and that 'farmer's markets at Brown'? LIES. Well, kinda. They disappeared once the weather got chilly and have yet to return. Plus, it's not the same because you can't buy that stuff off the meal plan--you have to shell out extra money.

PLEASE PLEASE COME TO BROWN!!
It sucks that once your school has the Ivy reputation, it thinks (and ok, pretty much rightly so) that it doesn't need fancy-schmancy dining hall food to lure you in.
'Cept for Cornell, of course. They NEED those famous chefs to offset the middle-of-nowhereness and the suicide rate.

A wood burning pizza oven on campus. Crazy!
It's in the pasta place, though, so I probably won't ever eat any.
College Dining Halls Go Upscale to Lure Students
I'm light years out of college, but used to work in the foodservice biz on the supplier/vendor side. Duke was a customer of mine and they have a freshman campus that is off main campus, closer to town (or they did at one point...this was 8 years ago.) The dining hall for these freshman was beyond any expectation I'd ever had for institutional food: the decor was hip & trendy, the ethnic and gourmet menus each day were varied and well-done. It seems no expense was spared anywhere. Nicer than most restaurants I go to these days! I'm sure it's only gotten better with the continued rise in tuition.
My husband extends fellow Rock Chalk congratulations to you, Adam.
The Best Frozen Custard
As a Wisconsinite I have to say that Kopps tops the list of the world's greatest custard. I have never ever been disappointed with any of the custard I have eaten there. I have traveled all over this great nation and sampled frozen custards from anywhere I could find it. Kopps is tops.
