Getting out of the dorm keeps boredom or other activities from contributing to the munchies.
Sushi bars are also ideal for inexpensive cuisine.
Grocery stores around town also provide pre-made sushi. But there's no atmospheric alternative for the shrieks of armed and irreverent sushi chefs.

You may still need the coffee pot to heat up water for your instant meals, but you don't have to head straight for McDonald's Extra Value Meals or stockpile extra Ramen to survive college.
