The thing about being in college is that its a time in your life when you have no idea who you are or what you want. You have absolutely no experience with adult relationships or even being independent from your parents. In essence, you're still a child.
I'd say its nice to start thinking about the kinds of things you want in a long term relationship in college but in reality you're not old enough yet to even know what you want in a lifelong partner. You might think you do but you definitely don't.

This is only true if you're an idiot though. Lots of people know what they want out of life by the time they're out of highschool.

Children often know what they want but their decision making lacks experience and information. Just because a child knows he wants to be an astronaut in the 2nd grade doesn't mean his decision is realistic. He doesn't factor in the hundreds of prerequisites that must be met before even being considered for astronaut training because he just doesn't know.
Its absolutely normal for your goals and expectations to mature as you mature but its also important not to be so set in your decisions as an adolescent that you leave no room for growth.
Lots of kids know what they want out of high school but the chance of failure is higher due to their lack of knowledge and perspective.

I'm not saying finding a wife in college is impossible. Anything is possible. The fact of the matter is that college aged kids know relatively nothing about life because they have only lived a few years of it out from underneath the umbrella of their parents.
With age comes wisdom and with wisdom comes the increased chance that the decisions you make are sound. Kids make plenty of decisions, but again this isn't a negative thing. Letting kids think they know whats best and letting them make mistakes is an important part of their growth.
