If memory serves, my classmates and I avoided the school cafeteria as much as possible.

Students arrested after raiding university cafeteria |
BOCA RATON, Florida (AP) --A bad case of the munchies during finals week has landed four first-year students in handcuffs.
Four 18-year-old women at Florida Atlantic University had been studying into the early morning hours when they decided to take some cereal, fruit and other snacks worth about $25 from the University Center Marketplace kitchen, according to a police report.
Spotted by a maintenance worker who called campus police, the four were handcuffed and taken to the Palm Beach County Jail, where they were held for the rest of the night.
"Burglary is entering and remaining in a place with the intent to commit a crime," campus police spokesman Chuck Aurin said. "They broke the law."
Dean of Students Leslie Bates said the criminal charges for the November 25 cafeteria raid is a first on campus. The state attorney's office has 30 days to decide whether to proceed with the case.
The university is making the four students spend 20 hours helping the food service employees as part of their punishment.
"It will be during the 'prime time' of the cafeteria," said Kaitlin Sjostedt, one of those arrested. "It's cruel and unusual punishment."
