I think about that once in a while, and I still think my most meaningful work was a small tool that I built while in college (almost 10 years ago).
The university website was pretty bad and in some programs the class enrollment was on a "first come-first served basis", so picking classes was a shit show (you could accidentally enroll in two classes at the same time).
So, me and some friends got to work on a tool to help student pick classes without overlaps. It would scrap the university website and show a nice timetable visualization of all classes that you wanted to attend, along with possible times.
I know it's nothing world changing, but it was pretty nice to see the traffic spikes and the positive feedback.
The website is still up to this day (although I think the code has been rewritten), so I guess that it's still useful :)
