Personally, I set up my meal times so that I eat between classes... (I eat every three hours on the dot) But if you must eat DURING class, make it something that you can eat quietly, like a shake or sandwhich. Anything that makes "crunching" sounds will be annoying. Just prepare it ahead of time =)

if i have to eat before class. i cook then eat it before or on the way. if its time to eat during class ill have a shake ( whey/ oatmeal) , if after class i go back to my apt. and cook .

you must not be eating dorm food.
Thats the one good thing about the dorm meal plan. All you can eat everytime when you go

hey..I'm also a college student....what I do is I carry a small cooler with me and make my food ahead of time if I know I am not going to be able to cook at my apt. If I am in class, I take 1/2 a shake or even a small prtoein bar to hold me over.

I've taken food into classes before. As long as it is something that I can eat cold and not need to cut up in class. You can have yams precooked and cut, oatmeal or cold chicken strips.

^ cold chicken strips are easy

that, or turkey slices from the deli

I had protein drinks or eggss or chicken/turkey sandwiches I had between classes.

Had drinks when I only had a few minutes break, sandwhiches when I had a break in my schedule.

I do the exact same thing. Works out very well. I cook about a weeks worth of meat at once. Usually 5-6lbs of steak and 3-5lbs of chicken. The steak I eat for dinner and the chicken I eat for lunch. But my lunch is always on the run and in between classes. So the night before I make my lunch. I get the boneless skinless chicken breast and put it inbetween two pices of bread add a little BBQ sauce and it's good till tomm. I aslo eat a natty PB sadwich with it. Then I just drink some water. With the BBQ sauce it can make your bread soggy so you can leave it out or just add it in morning.

How my day goes:
Breakfast, tuna
lunch, chicken
dinner, beef
LOL, now add three protein shakes in between and you have my daily protein intake.

Tupperware

Cook a bunch of brown rice with 2 cans of tuna in it, toss in a crap load of seasoning, i dont use sodium contaning stuff. and put it in an *AIRTIGHT* container in your backpack. During your breaks scarf down your meals. Been working for me for the last 3 years.

Also keep a small container of protein in a school locker, rentable usually, and a shaker, just add water and walla..... 40g of protein consumed in about 10 secs.
