You have to create two profiles besides common, i.e.

Home and College

In Home profile you tick eth0_home and untick the others
In College profile you tick eth0_away and untick the others

This works OK if you do *not* use DHCP to configure the wireless card
up.

In case that you use DHCP you need this little change to 
/sbin/dhclient-script

P.S. this last patch is for a loooonstandig bug with profiles, wireless
cards and DHCP.
