I think freshman 15 is not only due to the excessive late-night carbo loading (drinking beer), but also because at around 18, the body's metabolism starts slowing down.
A lot of folks who "grew fast" in the high school years get sort of chunky in the early years of college, whereas the skinny waifs tend to fill out nicely.
Of course, this does not apply to everyone - just a general observation.
Hmm - maybe one of my business ideas should be selling pink and purple shirts... nevermind - retail's a tough business
