I feel very similar. I go to college at the University of Kentucky. It is very rare that my fellow CS majors are on the same page as me. So many of them just want to get a job after college and do not have the same passion I have for writing code and starting companies. So far I have only found one or two exceptions.
Maybe I'm just getting arrogant, but I am thinking that people like us are few and far between. I would love to hear if things are different at other colleges, but this is how it is where I am. Has anyone here been to a college where they find a lot of people that really love what they do and want to turn it into a company?

When I was in school, some of the most talented hackers who were actually trying start-up ideas were students in various random majors who spent much of their time toying with ideas and technology rather than focused on classwork. Didn't make them great students but several of them went on to launch moderately successful ventures.
