It is a time for many kids to get out on their own and learn to be independent.
Or alternatively, to experiment with everything from sex and drugs to business models in a curated environment, with partial financial support and liquidity provided by parents and/or the taxpayer. Your point is good, but perhaps live-in college fosters interdependence as much as independence.
one of the last chances you will have to be around many single men/women
Well, there are also cons, but I hear that the single women at these events are under-represented, and a lot of the single men have good reason to be single....

There are these things called nightclubs :)
Nightclubs, yuck. I prefer a more non-hostile environment like a university. :)
