Advice for freshmen entering college
phicou: College is a great opportunity to try a lot of different things.  There's a lot of good advice here, but I'd like to suggest that you find some time to do some kind of volunteer work.Most colleges have many different groups and causes you can volunteer with.  You'll learn a lot of important skills that you won't practice during your normal coursework.  The things you learn while canvassing, petitioning, and organizing will help you in many aspects of your post-college life.You'll also meet people that aren't in your major.  Fun people.  People who throw great parties. People who will expand your "network" immensely.  Don't let this pass you by.Volunteering also looks good on applications for jobs and grad schools.  It opened the door for my first post-college job.
