Well in a month and a half I'll be off to Indiana University for the first college year of my life. Let's hear some college tips / advice.

There's been some good general college advice already in this thread - NoThumb really nailed it, even the 2pm thing. I never went to IU but I lived in Bloomington for many years so here's some advice on how to get the most out of the town.
1. Drink Upland beer!!!
2. You'll need two forms of ID to get into any bars or liquor stores so plan ahead if that matters to you.
3. Spend a summer in Bloomington, do it early in your career and you may never leave. The town really is that great.
4. Drink more Upland Beer.
5. Go to an IU Soccer game.
6. Get to know the community outside the school, there are a ton of great folks there.
7. Ride bikes out to one of the quarries and go swimming on a moonlit summer night. Go with a bunch of friends - chicks are preferable as nudity is always best. Know where you're going first though, none of the quarries are open to the public. And don't be a dumbass, no diving at night.
8. When you get home, lift an Upland Wheat and think of me.
