I LOVED taking my meditation class in college. Look in your local alternative paper (if you live in a city big enough to have one) and see if there's any local meditation groups that meet (here in Asheville we have bajillions). It's a good way to meet people who are more into meditation, who know more about it, and who will be willing to help you get started.
Meditation is all about finding what works for you- do you need to be in a chair? on the floor sitting? on a cushion? lying down (don't recommend this cause you'll fall asleep if you're not careful!)? Music on or off? Headphones or not? Do you need a tape for a guided meditation, or do you prefer to just sit peacefully by yourself?
The more you explore meditation and meditation techniques, the better chance of finding something that works just right for YOU! Keep at it, meditation has helped me IMMENSELY and was vital to surviving my first year of college!
