When I was in College. . .

The college experience (assuming you can afford it) is undergoing significant change as some of the more affluent schools are now offering double beds in what has traditional been minimalist campus housing. Gone are the days when college was akin to a cozy camp experience - now it's more like a luxury all-inclusive resort. Personally, I credit the year I spent sleeping on a rock-hard platform with my feet hanging off the end with all the success I've had to date. Although that experience (combined with a jerk of a roommate) also gave me incentive to move off campus after my freshman year.
