Wow, you went to a Posh University, the one I attended had three special meals per semester to highlight the usual gruel.  One was usually a steak of some kind, one was "Prime" Rib, and one was a Cornish Game Hen, or for those who made a request about a week before, some kind of special Fish preparation, such as Salmon Fillets, or, Stuffed Sole.

I never ordered the Salmon, since the University had a program experimenting on those fish and you never know...

What Americans call Cornish Hens are tiny when served.   In the US are actually a cross between Cornish and Plymouth Rock breeds of Chicken, and are something of a feast, but not excessively so.

I have always considered them something of a feast, and so did the dining commons at my university. One night a month we got steak ("steak night"), but on steak night before Thanksgiving and Christmas we got Cornish hens. That was the first time I had them and I have always enjoyed them. They are often called Rock Cornish hens in the US because of the ancestry described by P. J.
