Scavenger food and Craig's List

Like you have probably realized by my posts, life as an MBA student is very busy. At school, besides classes and class assignments, there are a ton of events happening every day:
- recruiting events (companies coming to school to recruit students)
- club events (there are many clubs at school for different types of interests, from professional to sports and arts)
- speaker events (the school constantly brings interesting people to talk to the students, from CEOs of big companies to people who want to save the world)
- and much more...

Most of these events have food included, which is great.
However, what happens most of the times is that there are always too many leftovers, so the people who organize the events just bring the food from the room where the event was happening to the halls of the school.

What then happens is that everyone realizes there is free food, therefore there is only one thing to do: eat it!
Of course, we love being part of the CBS community, therefore we also think about others, especially our friends. So when we see the food, we also have to tell our friends that there is free food, and where it is.
Yesterday while in the library with a bunch of friends, Sach (another friend) arrived from outside the library, went to our table and said (with a thick British accent) "Guys, there's food outside. Let's go, fast!"

Being fast is essential, not only because when the food becomes public it disappears pretty fast, but also because sometimes paper dishes and plastic utensils also go away even faster, and then we are all forced to eat in a primitive manner...and we try to avoid that.

When the food is something else than pizza or sandwiches, then it is really a lucky day. It is not that I don't like pizza, but the affordable pizza we get around here is oily and rubbery.

Speaking of events that have food catered. Today at school, we had Craig Newmark.
Craig is the founder of the popular website www.craigslist.com, where you can post ads. He is the guy to whom a lot of people around the world owe their successful apartment search and, in my case, my second hand portable air conditioner.
