   Free food for finals, the best thing on Earth
  Does anyone else's campus have one of those chaotic free food giveaways for finals week? They laid out tons of stuff onto some tables, this guy walked around in front of the crowd and swung his arms as if signaling some hot rod race, and then mayhem ensued. As far as I know, they haven't done this in the 3 years I've been here.All in all, despite it being like Jingle All the Way with food, I ended up lucking out with 20 energy drinks, 140 nutrigrain/yogurt bars, and about 25 packs of cereal. Also a bunch of oreo brownies. Hurray for free stuff!   
  No but on the last day of academy, they ordered barbecued beef and let us pay $6 for each person.  I didn't bother, so I didn't have any, but I hear they wound up getting this chopped up mess of old meat that wasn't particularly appetizing.  "Six bucks?" said one cadet before the food came.  "You can't beat that!"   ;  It'll taste better cos it's free   ;Quote:Original post by SalsaDoes anyone else's campus have one of those chaotic free food giveaways for finals week?We get free breakfasts every day for the last two weeks of finals (bagels, donuts, OJ, coffee, muffins, cake -- that kind of thing), though it's not quite on the order of magnitude that you described. One of the student organizations I chair gives out free 10-minute massages from professional masseuses who are nice enough to donate their time to stressed-out engineers. First come, first serve! There was also an unconfirmed rumor going around that one of the rowdier fraternities was giving out free porn to help you "relieve stress", but as far as I know that was just a joke.   ;  We have free massages (for hot chicks in kinesiology from what i've been told) and popcorn.   ;  I just checked with a friend, and apparently we have free massages from 11 to 3pm each day as well. I'm going to test my luck tomorrow with that.   ;  We don't get jack shit.I want to move where you guys are.   ;  I got nothing,... other than a candy cane and told that because the professor had a bad cold, we all got 95% on our final exam. :DI wish, we just got candy canes :(   ;Quote:Original post by RavuyaWe don't get jack shit.I want to move where you guys are.Ditto, since I go to the same university zomg.All I get for finals week is a punch in the face and one final on a Saturday afternoon.   ;Quote:Original post by SalsaDoes anyone else's campus have one of those chaotic free food giveaways for finals week?No.  Our cafeteria opened from 11:00 to 1:00 last night and dished out some questionable looking pancakes in celebration of the start of finals.  That was about it.
