The most logistically frustrating part of the ordeal: "Dining halls at some schools, for example, close for spring break, though some students can’t afford to leave campus."

Even during the semester, they didn't serve on Sunday. Presumably because you were all out with friends, eating at a pub or whatever. I just didn't eat on Sunday night.

  Wow, we at least had 7 day service during the semester.

    My buddy was an expert at finding all-you-can-eat buffet service. Couldn't afford the food service. That buffet was his meal for the day.

  Huh, I had completely forgotten about that. I had the same experience in Oxford -- my college served breakfast/lunch/dinner 6 days a week, but on Sunday there was just a brunch, and most weeks I ended up not eating dinner on Sunday.

    Which college were you at? We had one day a week without food at Corpus, and I just found a couple of friends to cook with.

  The cook at the frat house went home after putting lunch out on Friday, and didn't come back until Monday morning. However we had a rule that the kitchen had to be stocked with bread, cheese, butter and Cinnamon toast shakers at all times. You can go all weekend eating grilled cheese and cinnamon toast sandwiches.I did it a few times, at least.
