Then there's the whole issue of setting priorities. With the fourth meal, Harvard says to students: Your work is everything. If it takes 18 hours a day to complete, then trim back extraneous details like eating and sleeping and get to it! You never know who may be staying up one hour later than...

Dining diversity eliminates the need for actually conversing with a wide range of classmates, people with whom a student may not have much in common--at least not at first gulp.
