Odds and Ends

Food

Most of the time Chapinos eat across the street in the Willard Dining Hall, run by Sodexho-Marriott Food Services, but everyone usually calls it be the name of NU's former food service, Saga. Just go into Willard, take a left, go down the stairs, go down the hall, take a left at the Y, present your Wildcard, and there you are. Food. If you're not in the mood for food from Saga, Burger King is just a short walk to the south as are numerous Evanston restaurants.

Places You'll Need To Go

Need stuff? Osco drug store a couple of blocks down the street on Sherman will supply most of your needs. If you want to go to Chicago and you're not fabulously wealthy enough to take a cab (very few college students are) you can take the el. Take a right at Osco, then a left and the Davis stop is right there. If you're catching NU sports you'll end up at Ryan Field or McGraw-Hill. To avoid a lengthy walk catch the shuttle just across Sherman St. If you want to go to the movies, Sony Evanston's up near the stadium. Take the el up to Central and walk west. Otherwise you'll probably have to find a vehicle to take you to one of two theaters at Old Orchard mall in Skokie. There are a few theaters down in Chicago too.

We'll add more to this page later as suggestions flow in.
