In his article Whatsoever Things Are True, Todd Babiak talks about his regrets during his undergraduate years. I too have regrets but looking back, I don't think I could have changed much. May sound fatalistic, but my circumstances were the way they were and I could have made only minor adjustments rather than e.g., intern overseas or do some risky financial venture.
However, a general behavior change I could have relatively easily done was to try to coordinate to do activities with people. For example, if I was going to the Van Vliet gym, among my friends, I could have tried to find gym-mates despite it being a little more difficult to arrange. That is, not necessarily do activities I had no interest to do (e.g. run for student council, ha) but do activities I liked with others. I was/am prone to working alone to get things done faster rather than adding a socializing element and possibly being hindered.
