I agree. College is really the first time in a school setting where the people you see on a daily basis are there because they share the same interests as you. You have the opportunity to make friends based on that, instead of the fact that you happen to live in the same postal code as them. This means you have the chance to hit it off with people from all walks of life because you all have one interest in common already. And those friendships can last your entire life and even possibly land you a job because you work in the same field.
