    Ha! I only do it on days where I should be giving back students' assignments or exams but I haven't marked them all yet...it's my way of distracting them but also giving myself an excuse to eat baked goods! Or during exam reviews to calm the students down. I once brought dried fruit, but it didn't go over very well. I actually received a few course evaluations at the end of the semester where students complained about the dried fruit!

    Hah where do you teach....that's where im going next year! You sound like a really nice Professor!


    Can't share that! But it's in Canada... Don't call your profs nice until you see how they grade! ;)

    Pre-bag you some kind of nuts- cashews, peanuts, walnuts, or even mixed nuts....Also some wheat thins are good to pack-I put mine in the side pocket of my backpack so they wont break to much, I also bring the peanut butter crunch bars(by nature valley) But they are kinda messy to eat-they have lots of crumbs as u eat...Fresh fruit like apples i also keep in the side pocket of my backpack

    Granola bars that don't have a lot of chocolate in them (so they won't melt in the hotter temps) are my go-to for snacks at school. Actually, they're my go-to for ANY snack that involves me not being at home for a while. :P

    My boyfriend recently got me hooked on those tuna lunch kit things (forget what brand they are, but there's probably multiple kinds anyway). They're portable, good, and not that bad for you, either. =)

    You can do the gronola bars with chocolate just freeze a water bottle half full (or buy a 6 pack of the mini water bottles and drink a little out of bottle) then stick it in the freezer over night, it'll keep your chocolate cold and provide you with a cold drink as it melts

    Fiber one bars, cereal bars, nuts, crackers, just anything small. If you do eat at the dorms eat a healthy sandwich. I always enjoyed granola with strawberry yogurt and a salad. Don't gain the freshman 15 or 30 in my case. lol
