住校

Oberlin is a four-year residential college and we believe that living and eating together fosters a strong community. That’s why we require students to live in campus-owned housing through graduation or in an Oberlin Student Cooperative Association co-op.

住宿和餐饮

Our residential campus means the learning never stops. Once your classes are done for the day, where you live and eat becomes another opportunity to learn from your peers and develop as an individual. You’ll have plenty of options: Do you prefer a traditional residence hall, 或者一个沉浸式语言屋? Do you want to eat in a dining hall, or cook with friends in a co-op? Choose the space that’s best for you: That chat you have over lunch or in a house lounge may lead to something big.

我们的餐饮选择包括新鲜食品, mostly local food to suit every eater, 包括素食, 素食主义者, 以及其他饮食限制. The variety means meals are available to accommodate almost any student’s schedule (including the ever-popular fourth meal).

餐计划

学院的五个食堂, 美食广场, and cafés reflect our commitment to quality service, and diversity and wholesomeness of food choices. AVI Foodsystems Company is our food service provider as it shares our commitment to following practices that honor the environment, 经济, and sustainability of the local community. Additionally, our student-run co-ops are heavy on the local and organic and overall veggie friendly. We make as much as possible from scratch (including bread and tofu), 向当地农民购买, and deliver our compost to a nearby organic farm.

We're proud to have one of the largest, oldest dining co-op systems in the country, feeding nearly a quarter of our campus. Co-op meals are a community effort at every step, 从决定买什么食物, 做面包, 之后的清理. Members plan and prepare meals together in fully stocked, industrial kitchens. We make as much as possible from scratch (including bread and tofu), 向当地农民购买, and deliver our compost to a nearby organic farm.
