I couldn’t resist posting this comic:
What side projects are you currently working on? More likely than not, one of them will turn out to be more successful than you ever imagined.
You can find more funny / geeky webcomics at XKCD.

Side projects is the way to do it for sure. If for anything other reason that without side projects, that 1300 hours of classes and homework might drive you insane.
I like having a lot going on: Running 2 blogs, reading business books, programming a GTD application (more as a execise to learn Python than actually needing another GTD app!)
Web Design firm, Financial Services, neither related to my three electrical engineering degrees.
The only thing useful that 4 years of university taught was how to use Microsoft office well and how to survive on ramen and coffee.
Everything else was learnt from side projects.
