You could even eat whatever you want!
When I did my first degree, I discovered that the idea of many small meals scattered throughout the day worked really well for me; they all included some protein.

Apparently small meals throughout the day is better for you as well, it keeps your metabolism in check and all this other stuff. I'm not very eloquent today but you catch my drift. :]

I heard that eating often can cause problems for your stomach since you are continuously pumping acid into your stomach. Might be a myth though, I didn't so any research on it. But I still eat often. I can't help it... I just get hungry an hour or two after a meal :\
It's very important to eat healthy. If you don't, you'll find yourself tired and sluggish. Keep your energy up, you will need it for University.

Lol, that's true. Just beware of the crash afterwards and if you've been using it for a while, the withdrawals.

No problems here, though I am not eating "constantly" . I just eat small, frequent meals...not constant snacking.

I actually had the same sort of problem...courses during lunch time ^_^; last year what I would do was eat late breakfast (around 10-ish) before my 3 hour lab then eat after. More fun this term because I have classes around lunch time everyday.

I never had a class small enough for the professor to notice :p
Although some of the nearby students got a bit upset sometimes. Not that I was ever eating loudly (Chili on flat bread, or sweet potato fries from Bridges don't make much sound) but the smell inspired quite a bit of hunger in those sitting too close.
