Once into graduate school, your instinct for finding free food will be honed.
Seriously.
I made it my business to get to know students, faculty, and administrators across grad programs, because someone is always having an event, and FREE is ME! I often get mistaken for a student in various programs....like when i hit a law school event awhile back, the local bar chapter was trying to recruit me to be a rep for something or other. The best was when a prof in another program asked if I'd be taking one of their classes in the coming semester, as they thought I'd really enjoy it. I thought I would have...but alas, can't just drop into a pharmacy class without approval. I've found that the business school tends to have the best food, the law school events tend to be the most colorful (work hard/play hard I guess), and the humanities dept has the best ethnic food and most likely to make up "left over" plates for people!
