College is a time for each student to gain a higher understanding of the world through academia and experts guiding your steps through the educational system; at least, it was at some point. Nowadays, college is an extension of high school hellbent on pile-driving people into horrendous debt.
One thing that hasn't changed is the urge to commit debauchery. Sex, drugs, heavy drinking and senseless decisions are the forte of a college experience. Since college is a waste of time in the modern era, you might as well have fun doing it.
