although in an ideal world this is excellent advice; however many students aren't fortunate enough to have their school bankrolled for them and need to work throughout the summer to pay for their education.

Big companies offer pretty outstanding pay when you're interning, helping you pay for college.

I do agree that building is something which is invaluable; however while in college before you've really been proven and shown off development skills to work at a startup or have funds to work on a new idea you're really forced into a corner for working on side things in your spare time.
