College...Did I learn anything?

As my daughter makes her decision of which college to attend, I find myself thinking back to my college years. Of course I learned about history, math (a little), english and a lot of music, but there were life lessons and that's my subject of the day. Here is a list which is by no means exhaustive but pretty much off the top of my head:

-Rules were made to be broken.
-Differences are good. There is peace that comes from appreciating people for who they are instead of trying to fit them in your own "mold".
-There are other opinions and views out there. Explore these but realize the opinions and views you hold are just as viable.
-No matter how you may try, you will NEVER please everyone. If you do, you will not please yourself.
-There is ALWAYS something to laugh about.
-No one loves you like your mom.
