LEAVE THE BOOKS IN YOUR TRUNK!!!!
That way if you feel the need to study you trek out to your car and then to the library.
If there are lockers for rent get one at least for one semester/quarter. I never used one because they were by the res halls and commuter lounges. It was a million times easier to catch the shuttle to the parking lot and hike to my car than to hike to a locker.
Your schedule will be completely different every quarter. And unfortunately once you start taking classes in your major the schedule is more and more whack. I always swore that "I'll never again take an 8AM class." Guess when my required classes were? It blew big time. Which leads me to a disagreement with sctroy...
Never take a class that starts between 10am and 2pm! You'll easily spend a half hour searching for a parking space at these times. Then another half hour waiting for the parking shuttle! I know that not all schools are like this, but if yours is...9am or 9:30 classes are the latest morning ones you should sign up for. Like I said 8am blows but I never had problem with parking at these hours.
Prepare to spend your life on campus. I had 8am-9, Noon-1, and 7-9pm classes. Plus throw in all the activities, like meetings, sports, rec classes etc. You'll only go home to sleep.
