The most important tip that I've been given is, that what I learn in the classroom won't be applicable to the office.

I'm with Omally...fuck work.  University system is just a scam anyway.  All that money for something you can learn with a few hours of browsing on the net, a trip to the library, and some dedication.  And then what do you get for completing 4 years of study at the price of more than most peoples parents make a year...a fuckin job that pays you just enough to make you take out credit cards, a mortgage, and a car note...and then you're stuck in the rat race. Lets get free!

That's not entirely true. You learn more than knowledge at university.

Once you graduate college you can pretty much do whatever you want to... regardless of what you majored in.  I know people who majored in Spanish and now work with computers... it's all what you make of it

oh and I agree with Is this you... that's why everybody talks about the "college experience."  You may or may not learn a lot at college... but you're going to make contacts, make friends, and hopefully enjoy yourself

How many adults do you know that have at least once mentioned missing their college days?

I have learned most of those things.  The economy sucks, there aren't enough jobs and it doesn't really matter what you major in.  You'll just need to get any sort of job.
