Pretty good Mexican food close by.

Is dersins out-of-sync with PDX Metafilter, or is PDX Metafilter out of sync with dersins?!
My class schedule this term leaves pretty much no time for lunches, alas (and the only day I could do would probably be Tuesdays anyway).

I'm on campus monday-thursday mornings and tuesday-thursday evenings. I might be able to do lunch, but alas, I can't next week.

Unfortunately (fortunately?), I'm getting an even more useless degree than that!

Something something journey more valuable than destination? And make stops along the road for lunch with mefites.

I'm getting my masters in MetaFiltration at my job, while taking classes at PSU for something useful.

In fact, it might be the first useful thing I've ever done.

My M-W-F calc class gets out at 12:35 and my science class starts at 2:00.
Does this fit with anyone else's schedule?

I am a slowbie and so I am at PCC for another year+ getting my prereqs sorted out.

I'm such a slowbie that I don't even know what a slowbie is. Do you mean you're being smart and taking classes for less money? Seems like a good idea.

Just a thought, for future options, we could do brunch on Tuesday or Thursday (my class is at noon). There's a good cafe a couple blocks off campus that serves Illy.

My classes are T & TH from 2 - 6:30 and I'm currently unemployed, so I can actually make pretty much anything work.

Should we go to Locos Locos? It's across the street from Cramer.

I haven't been to Locos Locos before, but I would totally go there next week Wednesday or Friday after 12:35. (I actually get out of class an hour before that, but I can just work on some homework or something.)

Of course you guys all start doing lunch at PSU when I no longer work there.
Locos Locos is ok, its not amazing burritos, but I have had many a lunch from them and they were tasty.

Reviews make it sound mediocre, but cheap. Sounds about right to me!

I suspect it may depend on what you order. Last time I had a torta. It was good, but I've had better.

My wife used to work at PSU and ate many times at Locos locos. She agrees with what appears to be the consensus: She says "Decent. Nothing special. But decent. Cheap, too."
So. Sounds like it's better than dropping cinder blocks on your feet. Which is always a plus.
FWIW, I'd prefer Wed to Fri. Whatever time.

Well, that IS lame. I can't argue.
I may have sounded complainy at lunch since I wished my burrito had guacamole in it, but all and all I was pleased by the experience. A++ would eat again

I don't know about A++, but Locos Locos is for sure solidlt in the B - / B range as "totally decent if not particularly interesting."
Which means by PSU-area standards it is exceptionally (and surprisingly) adequate.

Ok, not A++. It's just fun to type "A++ would eat again."
