I'm still not sure precisely what I think of college.
For me, it was free (technically I made a profit my first year) and helped me avoid working meaningless jobs for five years, so that was a plus. I was doing *something* so people left me alone.
However, socially/emotionally, it was pretty much five solid years of despair, isolation, and often chaos, so that was a negative, and a source of recurrent nightmares in the present day.
Education wise, I didn't have any interest in the classes, particularly engineering, which was what I was being paid to do, so I can't tell if I learned much of anything and after a couple of years, I could have cared less.
The biggest thing I got from it was a Ticket to Law School, meaning that it allowed me to go to law school.
I like the fact that I'm employable because of college, but I hated the actual experience of college and would prefer to have those five years of my life back.
